Buffy comes home


A co-worker gave Beloved a Buff Orpington pullet that had been chased into their yard by something or other, from no one knows where. Buffy's a bit too young to slip onto the roosts yet and has begun life at Stony Run in a transfer cage, for her safety, as the resident hens want to attack her. When there is time, she has family privileges and prefers to stick as close to her new benefactress as possible, following her around, sitting with her, and purring when stroked or fed dandelions.
