This is the week of the chickens. First a few days ago Mama hen hatched out a very cute chick. Here are a couple of nice pictures.
Yesterday, while my sister and her children were here, Amelia came into the house calling for me to see a snake. I assumed it was a little snake until she mentioned the broody hen near the hay and that Badger was growling at it. Heeheehee, here is the broody hen and some of her eggs aka the intended victims.
Here is the snake. Please note it reaches the ground bent, my arm is out stretched as high as I could reach, and I have several inches in my hand. 
This last picture shows our friendly visitor (he never even tried to strike at me) where I released him at the far end of our property. May he eat many, many rodents in peace.
