The Prettiest Chicken

The image most of us have about chickens are usually the ones we see in the meat section of the grocery store.  Here's another way to look at them.

Blogger Designer SweetPeach has a friend who keeps chickens as pets.  I've never seen chickadees look so gorgeous--look at that plumage!  And the hens have a healthier diet than the average American:

They eat garden peppers, tomatoes, organic oatmeal, yogurt and all manner of table scraps (they love frozen watermelon). She recommends all chicken owners add a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar to every gallon of water to keep them nice and healthy.

Despite posting this on a food blog, I'm not going to make any quips about how tasty they must be (I'll admit that it did cross my mind).
