My vote is for #9. A young boy needs to have a good friend and the chicken doesn't seem to mind being hauled around. LOL Too cute!

Mike said...

Love them all. It's hard to vote. Chickens are beautiful animals. I vote for #16 wind blown skirt.

Jennifer said...

#2 What's for dinner? made me grin, but #26 Ouch! made me burst out laughing. So that's my vote, #26.

What a great contest.

megan said...

So hard to choose - I love them all! #26 is hilarious but my vote goes to #16!

Casey said...

I vote for #2. Very clever! Makes me laugh.

Unknown said...

I vote for entry #2. Hysterical!

Anonymous said...

My vote is for number 22, it is pretty funny that she won't look at the camera.

Anne said...

While #26 opens that old "chicken or egg" controversy, I see this is a chicken photo contest so my vote goes to #2!!

Anonymous said...

22 the camera/snob

Jennifer said...

I vote for #3, I'll show you who's boss! Very cute.

Number 12, that's brave to wear a chicken. Seeing I got crapped on by a bird last summer at a amusement park.

Anonymous said...

Number 12, I was crapped on last year by a bird flying by. I wouldn't do this.

Holli said...

Number 23 is beautiful! But #26 really brings a smile! Can we vote for 2?

Anonymous said...

#15 love the WHO ARE YOU look on his face..

Von said...

I vote for # 12. That's my wife holding up that darling little chick. Way to go chickie !

animalfarm12 said...

#8 is my favorite - the girls can be the best moms
If we get to vote for more than one #5 is the best broiler photo that I've ever seen as these are the ugliest birds to be had. By their 8th week we are so ready for them to be in picture #2 (on the BBQ) which is my last vote as it made me laugh. Thanks for posting the great chick flicks.

Wes said...

#9 - Especially the last picture. That little boy is so cute. You can tell he really loves his animals!

Katie said...

Entry #2!

Enid said...

I vote for #10 by Cloe. I like the perspective it gives - the chicken in their element with the delightful touch on the gateway to their domain. This photo give an idea and feel for the expansiveness of the chickens' yard. At the same time when I look at it, it makes me think and feel that although the pair of chickens standing somewhat close to each other may not be thinking of it or may be thinking/ deliberating still about it, - the chicken up front (in the foreground) has definitely MADE UP ITS MIND. AND it's just gauging the distance to the gate before it makes a run for it.
WELL DONE CLOE!!

Joy said...

Photo # 8 Too sweet!! :)

Diana said...

Nice photo Cloe! Good work! You've got my vote!

Becky said...

I vote for Cloe. #10 all the way!!

Lindsey said...

I like number 10 by Cloe. I think it's great that she could just pull off the side of the road and take that picture.

Rhonda said...

I vote for Cloe #10 WOOOHOOOO!!!

Marian Young said...

Cloe's picture is the best!! I vote for #10.

Rachel@ A Little Bit of Ray said...

I vote for Cloe #10!

KTE said...

I vote for Cloe's entry (#10) because it's fun to be 8 with a camera phone on the side of the road.

katiegirl said...

Amanda said...

Kate and Crew said...

I love them all! But Number 5 is my favorite with a follow up vote for Number 7. I can vote twice right? lol :o)

Karen said...

I like the expression on number 5!

Anonymous said...

I like #5. Attitude.

Kristalyn said...

My vote is for #23! Beautiful lighting, and the rooster's fantastic!

Deb Johnson, Quiltbeeme said...

Boy this was hard......I have to choose between my daughter's photos... but I vote for #1 since he's such a nutty looking boy and I know hard Becky worked to get that picture. I also love Katie's #5 because of the indignant look of the soon to be dinner fella! Great pics all!

Karen said...

I vote for number 22.

Anonymous said...

I like #5, looks like she's had a rough day, I feel like she looks sometimes.

PixieLady57 said...

Love them all, but I like #19.

Anonymous said...

Definately like #5, makes me laugh

Anonymous said...

OMG! They are all sooo adorable! But I kind of like number 5; the scraggly looking guy, he's funny lookin'

Dad said...

I had a tough time between numbers 1 and 5! I thought they were both hilarious! #5 gets my vote, but just barely, because of the look on the chickens face. :-)

Linda said...

Number 5. He's a looker!

T. Ray Sufczynski (raysuf) said...
