I think that spreading such cuteness is kind of evil.

But I do it anyway. Meet Whatnot, Random and Oddment.



Blessed Solstice, all! (yeah, I know I'm a day late. I was busy having fun).






Let me splode your brain just a little bit more. How about a bowl full of week-old chicks?



I am supplying enough friends with eggs to justify adding some layers to the flock. Random and Oddment are Brahma hens, Whatnot is a golden sex linked (which means that she results from a cross that guarantees all females will be of one color, males of the other. Genetics are so awesome). I am loving the cute. And since I'm handling them a ton now, they will remain tame as adults. Seriously, people, chickens are some of the best pets out there. They eat your garbage, give you food, live outside, remove pests from your garden, can be super tame and are THIS cute as babies.



Whatnot has a Volkswagen


Dogs are cute too.

Coba sez: WAIT no backstage photos!!!!!!! Sorry, baby, leaked 'em to the press. I'm so mean.


This is Jez licking the water off of her older brother. Even though it's adorable, there are moments I can barely look at it. See how Pryde's laying? Old dog is not feeling so great. His medicine helps some, at least.


The candid interview shot.


Happy Pride month, everybody!

Its hard to see your old friends get old. :(
Love the bowl, and love the chicks, oh who am I kidding, your dogs had me from the start. :)

Thanks! I think my pack is pretty charasmatic. The thing is, they know it, too. Fluffy little egotists, the lot of them.

I adore the cute photos! :D:D You are so awesome for sharing them.

[summer-jackel.livejournal.com]

I have cute animals in silly quantities and an interest in photography. It seems only fair and appropriate that I should share the combination of these facts.

[a-rowan-dryad.livejournal.com]

Agreed! I enjoy such logic very much!

How was spring time with the Dux?

Happy Solstice to you as well! The new additions to your pack are adorable.

::sigh:: Too bad my HOA doesn't allow chickens.... Great pics!

I want to steal your farm, it's freaking awesome. Dogs, horses, chickens, cats, birds... Can I be you when I grow up? :P

I know about the elderly pet sadness. I've had Foxie since I was 13 and while she's healthy, she's gotten very bony. The chubby young cat is now a thin older one and I feel her mortality every time we snuggle.

I've known a few very old cats, and the combination of fragility and vitality is so charismatic and powerful.

As for emulating my zoo, well, you have a wolf puppy now. ;) Have fun; those first three years are a roller colaster!

Roller coasters are fine. Just god no more glass!!

Oh cuteness explosion! ::kapow!:: I miss having chickens! They really are the best pets ever! the only pest that they do get is chicken lice, and humans can't get it. And even if your chickens do get the little pests a quick dirt bath usually fixes that. I miss seeing my chickens lying on their side in a pile of loose dirt with their wings spread out in the sun <3 <3 <3
I has a new car! I will visit soon! And oh god will there be chicken love!
