I did raise Smokey from a chick. But I have had several hens I got from Katha, the chicken lady who used to have a shop on Duval but moved to Homestead. They were older but settled in nicely. My real good friend works for the police dept down there and I told her if I got arrested I was calling her! We used to just go by the airport, pick out 1 I wanted, and chase it with nets until we got it. But they are no longer there so we went to plan B. I saw a mother with little chicks roosting in the roots of a kapok tree in front of the post office downtown. It was about 9:00 cause we had been to sunset. I just picked her up, DD picked up the 2 little ones and we stuck them in a box. I named the mom Bonnie, after the storm that was heading towards KW while we were there, and the chicks are Zip, for the post office, and Kapok, for the tree.
