Well, we went to the Iowa State Fair today. I will post some pics of my fave birds later. But for now, we have acquired 4 banties. That chicken fairy was all over me like a ton of bricks.

I got these three friends - 2 hens and a rooster (what am I thinking?!). No names yet. They are bantam English something or other. I'm not sure what colour they are. I found when I got them home that they seem to have little mites or something around their vents. I need to get something for that. Got the trio for $15. I love them though - they are super easy to handle. One of the hens sat in my lap for the whole drive home, about 40 minutes. No fussing or flapping or anything. What a sweet nature. Their beaks were overgrown and their nails too. All clipped now.
