people with house chickens

okay, here's the story. my chicken is named picasso, yes, she does paint, i have only sold a few of her paintings, but she sells them on facebook.When Picasso was small, I noticed that she couldn’t see things as well as the other chicks in her family could. She was having trouble finding food to eat and she couldn’t see the water in the waterer. Whenever I went out to the barnyard, I would take her to where the food and water was and make sure that she ate and drank. She got used to this and would wait eagerly for me to come and ‘feed’ her. She actually began to recognize my voice and she’d come running to me when I called her!
One cold and rainy fall day, she climbed up the step of the porch and settled down right by the door. When someone came by and went into the porch, Picasso dashed inside to get out of the rain! From then on, she has lived in the house, where she’s always got someone to help her if she can’t see her food or water.
so that's my chickens story.

That is so cool! Not that she has problems with her sight of course, but her story. Would love to see some of her paintings.

Anyone have and enrichment ideas, we are having lots of rain storms here and Pancake can't spend much time outside or doesn't want to with it raining on her. But she is feeling a bit house bound even though we've been sneaking her out into the main house to run around. (She is suppose to stay in my room 24/7 unless she is being held.)
 
Ok so I am really glad I found this.. I have a chicken that we recently rescued (6 chickens in total) She was very hurt and I have been attending to her wounds she has been inside in my laundry room. Well that was 2 weeks ago .. She no longer wants anything to do with the flock.. I have been taking her out to visit her flock mates.. they stay on one side of the fence and she on other ..as she isn't completely healed if they even look at her back in our lap she goes... No one will believe me but she actually walked to the back door and pecked on it..I walked over in amusement and she went in and got in her crate!!! I was so shocked .. I don't know how to reintroduce her to the flock and I will miss her..But she poops a huge dog size turd in the morning that will stink so bad ..and the squirts .. If I could potty train her !!! Her name is Shira
