Chicken Stories

<p>My grandchildren Astrid and Ethan often asked me to tell them a story. Astrid and Ethan shared their ideas as to what each story should be about.</p><p>Astrid has always been involved in looking after chickens and has increasingly become interested in different breeds of chickens. She had entered one of her favorite chickens Snowflake in a local fair and won the Best of Show. It all began on our hobby farm before she was six years old. Her interest along with Ethan's grew and I knew this was an opportunity for the three of us to create a variety of stories centered around chickens and our hobby farm. The chicken stories are the beginning of a continued interest for Astrid to become a future chicken farmer and her knowledge of breeds is developing at a rapid rate. Both Astrid and Ethan love living in our rural community where opportunities to live and learn on a hobby farm are abundant.</p>
