Chicks in the City

What can you say about an enormous chick?  Whatever it wants!  Ha!  Ha! Seriously folks, it appears that raising chickens in an urban environment is still pretty popular.  Some people keep them for pets!  Grown chickens!  According to an article in Countryside; Small Stock Journal Nov/Dec2007, one Frank Hieiema of North Carolina likens his chicken coop to "a widescreen tv." "We don't have cablevision because we get enjoyment watching the chickens...." Plus they eat a lot of bugs. The chickens do. The eggs?  Rumor is they're fabulous.  More information?  Coming right up:
