Why do we love chickens?

This is why I love chickens: http://bearswampreflections.blogspot.com/2008/08/cheep-sleep-therapy.html Oh, yeah, I love their wonderful eggs, too!

For me it's not something in the genes, or I'd be raising Clydesdales in southern Minnesota (hmmmm...not a bad idea).

I think it's because chickens are both miraculous (their eggs which feed us), beautiful and goofy all at the same time. What a great combination. The perfect friend and companion.
