We’ve decided on names to give to the chickens, again with the theme of 19th Century English authors. We haven’t distributed the names yet, but we’ve agreed on the following: Fanny and Fiona for the (light-colored) Golden Comets; Evangeline and Geraldine for the (dark-colored) Barred Rocks; and Helen for our newly arrived (medium-colored) Ameraucana. Seeing as how David and I consider ourselves monks, the new brood of chickens shall be considered nuns, and they each shall be addressed with the title of “Sister.”

I take them out to the garden for a half an hour each day.
Missing from the photo is the new Ameraucana, who doesn't like her picture taken.
