Meet Gingerbread

This is Gingerbread, our first chicken. We bought her when the lady who came by trying to sell her insisted that she is a great layer and produces plenty of eggs. It only took John a millisecond to pick a name for her (he has a knack for naming quickly). She spent yesterday hunting for things to eat in the garden, and then climbed a tree and spent the night there. So far, we like her very well.
