The Green Chimneys animal calendar features 12 months of our animals and their real-life stories. Stay up-to-date with furry and feathered friends while supporting our programs for children and care of our animals.
Featuring the work of the award-winning photographer Jason Houston, our annual calendar provides an artful look at some of our beloved animals and stories of how they arrived — and have thrived — at Green Chimneys.
Meet the Bantam chicken family: a hen that arrived at Green Chimneys with seven new baby chicks in tow. A local resident who keeps chickens discovered the eggs in the hen’s nest and realized that many chicks would need a bigger home. Once they hatched, she wanted to keep the family together and brought Mama and her chicks to the Green Chimneys Farm where they took up residence in the bunny hutch, living together happily with their rabbit roommates. The two roosters and five hens have grown up looking just like their black and white-speckled mom so there’s no mistaking this family resemblance!
