Hen on the Bunny Slope?


Our newest household addition is this adventurous hen, a gift from a man we have helped in the past. One of our houseguests named her Petronella. Our Zambian friends think it is hilarious that we would name our chicken! They also tell us that she will be lonely unless we get some other chickens, so we are in the process of building a pen and getting some more feathered friends to keep Petronella company. Right now she lives in and around our outdoor kitchen. Saturday she decided to go exploring and flew up on top of the thatched roof. She walked around for a few minutes and then started skidding and sliding. I happened to have the camera ready and captured her ski maneuvers.
