I just noticed a lovely post by Henrietta23 about her ten year old chicken who might be getting ready to leave this earth for greener pastures. Made me wonder how old our oldest birds are?
I know we all raise them differently; I myself haven't been doing this long enough to have anything like a ten year old, and many eat 'em and restock nearly yearly, I know.
But post a description or pic of your oldest chicken, and lets pay some respect to our Senior Citizens, the Golden (Laced?) Girls, the Founding Mothers of our flocks:
Show Us Your Old Biddies!
