    Anyone else keep their birds as pets? (Not for food)

    My chickens are my pets! I'll never cull one. My family will eat their eggs and that will be all. I walked out today and one of them was laying out in the sun with her leg and wing stretched out just lounging around. She looked up at me like "what?" She started dozing until someone else bumped...
