We have a little light brahma who has decided her favorite place to perch is on a shoulder. (Should be interesting when she's at full growth!) It's occurred to me that chickens are superior to parrots in virtually every respect.
1. Chickens cost $4 instead of $1,000.
2. Chickens don't have to live in your house.
3. Chicken feed is cheaper than parrot food.
4. A chicken peck isn't as painful as being chomped by a parrot.
5. Chickens don't talk back.
6. Even a rooster is quieter than a parrot!
7. Chickens eat bugs. Parrots are too picky for that!
8. You can eat the chickens' eggs.
9. You can eat the chickens. (I won't, but you might.)
Can anyone else think of something more?
