    Regis and Kelly discuss chickens

    Did anyone see Regis and Kelly show today? They displayed a newspaper article about the chicken keeping movement. Kelly would like to have chickens, so her kids can experience collecting eggs. I shot her a quick email and told her about my setup. Also, I included the link to BYC for reference.
