Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas from the 2 Happy Hens!
Nestle and Chilli are allowed inside for a festive
photo shoot in front of the Christmas tree.
Chilli camouflages with the wooden pine floor!
Chilli and Nestle inspect the Christmas presents
under the tree and peck the wrapping paper.
Chilli actually ate a small piece of wrapping paper
with sticky tape on it after the gifts were opened!
Lydia is sitting on the lounge and Nestle jumps on her knee.
Lydia's patchwork friend Margie made the original,
 contemporary red poppy wall hanging in the background.
The quilt's colours blend in well with the Christmas theme.
Nestle stands tall and wants to know what is going on.
Nestle stands side on and poses for the camera.
Nestle turns around.
Connie took a good photo of Chilli standing in front of the Christmas tree.
Our favourite Christmas card from our friends Connie and Garfay.
Connie drew a funny cartoon of Lydia and Gerard with the 2 Happy Hens.
Nestle's cartoon balloon says that she wants a massage!
Chilli is depicted as a fat and round chicken who lays lots of eggs.
The snails say "help!" as they are the 2 Happy Hens favourite food!
Merry Christmas everyone!

Bathing Beauties

 Chilli and Nestle like to have dust baths, especially on sunny days.
 Chilli fluffs up and gets ready to kick some dirt.
 Nestle fluffs herself and looks like a turkey as she kicks dirt everywhere.
 Chilli loves having dust baths.
 The 2 Happy Hens take a break.
 Peck, peck, peck.
 More dust bathing in the sun.
Nestle is covered in dirt and is very relaxed in the sun.
Dirty, fluffy Chilli sun bathes.
 Chilli's feathers are covered in heaps of dirt!
The 2 Happy Hens look content sitting
in their dust bath in the sunshine. 
 Chilli is a little bit sleepy whilst Nestle remains alert.
Chilli takes a nap whilst Nestle rolls her head in the dirt. 
 Chilli wakes up whilst Nestle has a little rest.
 Chilli 'plays dead' and lays on her side with her feet in the air.
Chilli is leaning on Nestle in the sun.
 Nestle stands up....
 ...and Chilli falls over! Very funny!
 
Bathing Beauties.
Chilli and Nestle are certainly 2 Happy Hens!
