I milked a cow several times when I was a little girl and me and my parents were visiting my grandmother who lived in a village. As far as I remember the milking was a very absorbing process and I liked it very much. And my grandmother also had chickens, but they were not so 'user friendly' as the chickens from Shelburne Farm, and it was impossible to take and hold them as children on your photos are doing (I felt a bit envy when seeing this children holding chickens :))) Once when my grandmother was carrying a hen in a basket I tried to check whether the hen had a tongue (I was very curios child!), and the hen pinched me on my finger! So I got a strange triangular bruise on the finger, but I didn't get any knowledge about the hen's tongue. :)))
