WE GOT AN EGG!!!!

Finally, after 5 months with the hens we finally got an egg yesterday.  Katie went to the barn to check on feed and water.  She called me to say I needed to bring Seamus over STAT.  Thankfully, there were two adults so we could capture his reaction of finding the first egg.  Somehow, he even carried it home and didn't break it!! And that was with dropping it several times!

Fair Parade

This video just shows his pure joy and excitement for the parade and the fair.

The Fair

A bunch of photos from fair week. 
Cloverbuddy judging. He made his poster on his chickens but mainly told the judge about his mean rooster, Mr. Friday. 
Parade time with Sophie and Bella, two of our other cloverbuddies. 
His painting if trees got second place!
Riding the merry go round with Kailee. 
The first of many corn dogs for the week. 
Riding a pony like he has been doing it his whole life. 
Barn duty, cleaning the aisles. 
Helping Addie feed the pigs. 
Being a good ball at one of the horse shows. 
One of the ribbons his hens received and his cloverbuddy trophy. Not sure about the pose, but he did it for every picture that day! 

Chickens

Seamus loves his chickens. Here are a few photos of him visiting with the ladies. 

This is one of the three feather heads. They are his absolute favorites because they let you pet them. 
This is Nubs. He survived an attack from a raccoon or something but lost a toe in the massacre. He is one of the meat chickens.
