Chicken Talk
Olly Astro and Olivia are still both pretending that they don’t like each other. They’re very good actresses, but I think they’re starting to come around. Olly Astro has the upper hand now, and has become the alpha chicken, which has also calmed Olivia down a bit. Olly apparently decided she has been here long enough that she doesn’t have to take Olivia’s crap any longer. So now… the mutual standoff is as friendly as they get.
Olly Astro gets to eat first. That’s how she and Janet have worked it out.
Then Janet asks if it’s her turn yet.
Olly Astro thinks about it for awhile, and eventually lets Janet eat.
Janet would love to eat in peace.
But Olly Astro keeps a close eye on the food at all times.
So Janet takes BIG bites, in case her turn ends too soon.
Here they are settling in for the night and eating dinner.
They are both sweet, good chickens and we’re happy to have them here at Flapper’s house.
We even think Olivia might secretly like them… a little bit.

That Olly Astro has some beautiful dark eyes! They are both beauties, but tell Olivia there are no chickens more beautiful than she is.
Wow, look at the sheen on those feathers! Both hens look so great!
I love this story because this is exactly how it is with my 3 cats. One would eat all the food of all 3 cats (soft food) if i didn’t stand over them. There always has to be that alpha male…..
