Backyard chickens are not a new phenomenon, by any stretch of the imagination. In Pride and Prejudice, Charlotte Lucas makes a particular point of the fact that her connubial bliss is less dependent upon a happy choice of husband, and more dependent upon a full larder, and well tended poultry.
Our own chickens are more important to us than a lot of other material items pop culture tells us we must purchase.
For anyone considering getting into the backyard chicken habit, I highly recommend this movie!
