Since the Flock Friday post didn’t include any chickens, I took a photo of them on my morning rounds. Here they are enjoying some Thanksgiving scraps. 🐓

On the homestead blog: it’s Friday… Flock Friday. This week, ducks, chickens, and hummingbirds… and a rodent. #FlockFriday 🦆🐓
The Micro.blog challenge word for day 17 is “train”. The chickens have been trained to come running when I approach the chicken run on my morning rounds, to receive their leafy treats. 📷🐓 #mbnov
The Micro.blog challenge word for day 5 is “stoop“. I have to stoop when going into my old chicken coop, as the door is a bit less than 5 feet high; I’ve banged my head more than once. So when I built the new coop, I made a full-height door. 📷🔨🐓 #mbnov
Another fun chicken picture: Buffy getting ready to jump up to try to reach some high kale leaves in the veggie garden, with Domino in the foreground. 🐓
Cats and ducks are cute, but let’s not forget the chickens. 🐓
Video: Best day of the year for our chickens. Once the first frost of fall brings the veggie garden growth to an end, we let the chickens in there, so they can eat the remaining tomatoes, kale, lettuce, etc. 📹🐓
What better treat for the chickens on Halloween than a pumpkin?! Plus I noticed a great-looking spiderweb between some of the pumpkins from our garden in the breezeway. 🕸🎃🐓
