Miss Clara Cluck is a hen with a lot of attitude. At first when she came home she reminded me of Miss Prissy from Fog Horn Leg Horn. She seemed regal and above “it all.” We aren’t sure what breed of hen Clara is; she lays brown large eggs with some spots on them and is mostly quiet.
Clara and Nugget are best friends. Clara is the oldest and taught Nugget quite a few things when Nugget was very tiny, like scratching for worms and how to get up into the hen house. Nugget is Clara’s only friend because Clara was ugly to the 7 other chicks and the goslings when they were all young. We didn’t see that coming, as Clara was so quiet and Miss Prissy like.
Clara and Nugget look a lot alike, but Clara has a dark beak and dark legs while Nugget has a yellow beak and yellow legs.
