The House Chicken?

There are house cats. Why can't there be a house chicken?
Kind of an interesting thought, right?

Well, let me tell you why it's not a good idea. Poop. Lot's of poop.
I have been trying to train a chicken to not poop in the house. And, believe me....my family is delighted that my quest is over with.

There's something kind of sweet and innocent about puppy piss but let me tell you.. stumbling into the kitchen at 4am and slipping on chicken sh** isn't nearly as sweet. To be direct...it's just wrong.

So, today I gave it one final attempt and when I checked in on my feathered friend I discovered no less than 16 chicken turds on the floor.

Yes, I had to clean them up. All of them.

But could you imagine pooping 16 times in one day? I know they have a tendency to go quite a bit but this is off the chart.
