Debate about feral chickens
« on: Today at 07:10:35 PM »
some people like the chickens. They want to keep them free. There's an org dedicated to "rescuing" them. They want land to do it.
I don't think we need to rescue chickens. They are not endangered and they destroy the land.
What next rat rescue?

Chickens are very unique.  I can think of no other warm blooded creature that can survive on its own it in a few minutes after being born, or in this case  hatched.

On their own?  Why do I see so many chicks follow their mama hen everywhere until they are almost her size?
