Tending to her flock

This is really not what I pictured when I thought about getting chickens.

This morning I found Neko loading the chickens into Ellery’s Calico Critters house. My first impulse was to rescue the girls from the hands of an eager seven-year-old. But then I noticed they were all snoozing away in their cozy beds.

I’m not sure how they’re going to take to the coop after this. I imagine it might be like moving from the Four Seasons to the Holiday Inn.
