    New home owner - previous owners left their chickens!

    Hello, I moved into a new home about two months ago, and the previous owners left their 9 backyard chickens...in the backyard. We never anticipated having chickens, so I'm completely new to the game, and we have one big problem I'm not sure how to address. The previous owners didn't care...
