@farmerjohn Great! We have two chickens that are already 4 yrs old. We had four, but two have died. They lay eggs quite seldom... but our son wants to keep them, since they are his pets and he loves them.

@tanjaostman @farmerjohn we always raised 50 hens and 50 roosters. The neighbors called my dad, "Chicken Harold"🤣 Most of the roosters went in the freezer... But we always had our pets. A few spent the day on my dad's workbench in the garage watching him work, or sit on his lap when he rested in the shade. I remember the sweetness of cuddling a hen.
