Mimi -
Nope, no chicken pictures! They are pretty, though - all different breeds and colored. Some even lay colored eggs!
Ranya is a funny girl - as I said, her tail is pitch black from the base to the tip. She has a small bit of black on one of her pads, and a tiny drop of black skin on an ear. We got her as a stray... she was bony and dirty, and we kept trying to wash off the ear spot! I thought it was a bit of oil, but it's permanant!
My vet laughs every time she sees her - thinks it looks like Ranya's tail was dipped in ink.
Here's my little darlings
The big orange guy is Koji, we found him when he was about 6 or 7 weeks old. He was hanging around outside yowling frantically for his mom. I ended up tracking down where he slept to catch him. He was terribly afraid of people at first. He crawled into the base of our pedestal sink and wouldn't come out until I fell asleep on the bathroom floor. He came out and fell asleep with me and has considered me his mommy ever since.
The little grey girl is Shio. We just got her on Monday from the Humane Society. They seem to be getting on OK. I spent most of my day yesterday with one or both of them sitting on me being reassured that there is love enough to go around.
