Red Bird, My Friend

I never thought I could love a chicken, but I did, beady little eyes, charming cackle and all.
I started out with a desire for fresh eggs. What I ended up with was a colorful cast of new friends and companions.
These are the stories of Red Bird, Hawk, Cain and Abel, Spunky Caca Butt, my beloved Tom and many more. They each taught us unique, memorable, and sometimes amusing lessons about love, companionship, and the bittersweet circle of life.

This is a slightly fictionalized account of my personal experiences of raising chickens.
