Chickens are an amazing deal. They not only give loads of eggs and fertilizer in exchange for kitchen scraps, they are also fun to pet. Photos by my friend Eric Etheridge, whose fantastic book of photographs of the Mississippi Freedom Riders, Breach of Peace, has just been published.
Now my Dearly Beloved could write a rant about why not to have chickens while I so want them. ha.. Love the pictures.

It is a lie! It is not the right way to teach children! We don't need pets and don't need chicken meat. Let them free!
