Speckles the Chicken

Speckles

Speckles likes to peck things because once we were putting nail polish on her head so we could tell them apart she pecked it and then she tried wiping it off on the news paper.  She is very, very loud but really fluffy.  She is very scared of high places.  Speckles has a white body and little black speckles on her neck and that is why we called her Speckles. We think that Speckles is a girl because she has a little comb and she doesn’t have a wattle under her neck. Speckles is 16cm high and weighs 400gms.  Speckles is a cute chicken and she likes to run away from us when we try to catch her.  We like her because she is nice to us, because she doesn’t hurt us at all. She has a little blue band on her right leg.  Speckles especially likes to peck shiny things because once I had shiny nail polish on and she pecked at it. She is a handful but we can take care of her.  We love Speckles and she loves us back. By Heidi and Mackenzie
