Are these your chickens in Wake county NC?

I was driving back from Southern States yesterday and decided to take an unknown route home (I like to explore). I stumbled upon these chickens, close to the road. I just had to turn around and snap a couple of pictures. As I pulled over, they all came running up toward the front area. Sorry about the quality.

and part of the coop:

Glad to see I'm not the only one who checks out chickens when out driving.

That's taking an interest in chickens to new heights!

I've done the same with chickens and horses

We call in "Chicken Stalking". Another house near ours has a chicken tractor that you can see from the road. We drive by nearly every day to see how their girls are doing. Just this past week we saw a big fox running through the yard as we drove by. Good thing their girls were locked up tight!

ok, now we have to find the owner of these beautiful girls and get them on here!!!!!

stalk.... stalk.... stalk.....

they need Christmas decorations as well.

When I'm out in an area I've never been in, I think I'm looking more for chickens than at the road. It's definately a sickness.

Maybe some BYC business cards are in order. Place it in the mailboxes of those we see.

I never see chickens in my area!

Yup, I do this too!


Also, my next door neighbors keep chickens and a duck in a pen. (Mine range freely.) I am not ....happy ....with the way they feed their birds. I worry about 'em. So, every now and again, I toss some of the feed for my flock into their pen. And I occasionally provide treats for them,too. Never when anybody is home over there!

The neighbors are really good neighbors, friendly, nice folks. I just don't want to be all "you should be doing this" with 'em.

But I scope out chickens every where I go. Sometimes I see a yard perfect for chickens and wonder why the residents don't have any.
Everybody should have chickens, doncha think?!?!

I can't imagine ever not having chickens again. They provide such joy and laughter!

How do they feed them?
