The smallest of all my chickens is Gertrude. She is super friendly and comfortable being held. I loved painting her backlit. It made for beautiful shadow colors...

  1. She is beautiful, Kristin. Alas, I am reminded of Gertrude in Journey to the Center of the Earth. A favorite goose of mine. Glad your Gertrude has a good home!
