I retired in 2012 with a broke leg. Sat in front of my PC til the leg healed, then I fractured 2 discs in my back. Spent another year in front of the PC. The next thing I know I am battling Cancer! Spent 2016 on the highway to treatments and surgeries. Chickens are my therapy!! They are my pets and they put my "new normal" life at ease. I love them, wish I had gotten them sooner.
