The first Chicken Wednesday of the year

From the folder "another town simply doesn't get it" we have four felonious chickens.
Margo Powers doesn't want to be "the chicken lady." The 34-year-old mother of three is frankly surprised that the four laying hens in her backyard are creating a squawk in her neighborhood.
....
Keeping urban chickens is a growing trend in a society increasingly interested in where its food comes from. The city of Sacramento is considering legalizing egg-laying chickens, drafting policies that are expected to go before the legislation committee in March.
Wait! The city is considering legalizing egg laying chickens... Hell. That's more I received from ours.

I wish her luck and all the other backyard chicken hooligans.

One day things will change. Probably when the town is so broke during Great Depression II that to take away people's chickens would be criminal.
