    My chickens love each other! Very cute 🧡

    Hello BYC! I have two beautiful chickens and they are inseparable. If I pick one up the other screams for her!... Today I witnessed the sweetest moment ever... as always they were together and Fornelos, the gray one, started singing. Giselda, the yellow, started too. They were crazy for a while...
