All students know that there are chickens in the parking lot but recently they’ve become bolder. The five chickens have often approached students becoming more familiar with being fed and touched. Although skittish they will eat out of your hand if you’re careful.
London Crotty, junior, and I fed the chickens raisins, which are safe for them in moderation and they enjoyed them.
Be aware that if you feed the chickens, they may chase or follow you when you leave. As well as be aware of what is safe for them to eat.
They have names(left to right): Sploot, Sally Jade, Jeff, and Rodney.
