that is awesome. at least the chickens can help the homeless...by providing food. Much more useful than feral dogs or cats!

That's cool. Did you ever see the Dirty Jobs episode where Mike Rowe joined the chicken patrol in Miami? They chased feral chickens all over a neighborhood in an attempt to lower the population. It was hysterical watching them chase these zippy chickens.

Haha! love it! Especially the part that kids can catch them better than animal control

Thanks for sharing

Too bad no one ever thought about eating them for supper! Free supper that is!

For the hens, free eggs!
