Chicken Little?
We got chickens...for pets! We've been thinking about getting the kids a pet, but aren't sure we are ready committ to something major-like a dog or cat. We've had a chicken before, but it was in California & it was larger. I think it wasn't the best timing for us because the chicken went bye-bye quickly. This time John got the kids baby chicks (only a couple days old). They will lay blue eggs at about 12 weeks. We'll keep you posted on how that goes!
