Hometime

I work at a rural school, and in 9 weeks the children have their agricultural day. They get to bring along a lamb, goat, calf or chicken. The kids that are having chickens got to take them home at hometime today. They are 6 weeks old and the kids make real pets out of them. I also got some chickens as lots of our hens are so old that they've forgotten how to lay eggs!

A sweet capture - as the chickens at that stage are not quite as cute as when they are yellow and only a few days old!
