Mr. Pickles

The newest member of the Happy Chickens family is here and a most unexpected addition he is.

He scratches at the baby gate and wags his tail when I talk to him and pet him and lies sleeping as we speak on a towel for his bed in front of the heating vent.  John took him out this morning on leash and collar and like a good boy, he did his duty outside.  No messes the whole night!

Did we get a new puppy??  You would think, but no, no, no.  Mr. Pickles is a mini pig!

That’s right.  There is a PIG.  Asleep in my kitchen!

Why, yes, life does take some strange turns now and then, doesn’t it?

Mr. Pickles!

Mr. Pickles!
