Remember the chicks we hatched? Well this is Donna, Kiki's chicken. Turns out that Donna is a boy but he is the sweetest chicken :) 
He is very patient and seems happy with the kids picking him up. Kiki even takes him for walks.

That's the biggest chicken I've ever seen!
what great pictures today . . digging a pond and hugging donna. donna is so sweet! what incredibly precious pictures, and what a special pet . . ?! (i never thought of a chicken as a pet . . )
What an adorable cuddly cockerel!!!
Offcumden, I know! She/he is a giant Orpington I think. We just got a random batch of fertile eggs to hatch out so the breeds were a surprise :)
Thanks Dorina and Pip :)
Donna is their favourite because She/he is so very patient and will even fall asleep on their shoulders :) She/he is at the bottom of the pecking order it seems and the poor thing tries to hide behind the other chickens if scared, like we can't see her/him :)
I love your photo stories so much. Thank you for sharing - and the chicken does look huge!
