My Day 29 painting for the 30 Paintings in 30 Days Challenge is “Sharing the Box”. Gem and Dixie, our two hens are sharing the nesting box. We have a retirement home for chickens, here on our hobby farm. We don’t eat meat, so our little chicken lay the occasional egg and live out their little feathery lives with us. Gem died several months ago but had a good retirement and is buried on our farm. Our oldest little bantam hen, Jewel, even has wrinkles, and is still going strong.
