Isn't that illegal in many places?

[–] toynbee@lemmy.world 12 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Not OP, but I suspect the aforementioned chickens might have been rescued.

[–] threelonmusketeers@sh.itjust.works 4 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Ah, good point. Given the other... uses we have for chickens, it hadn't occurred to me that "chicken rescue" would be a thing, but it probably is.

It likely would not have occurred to me, either, but I have recently befriended another Lemmy user who has pet chickens. He has considerably expanded my perspective on my matter.

I'm actually a bit surprised he hasn't made an appearance in this thread (that I've seen, anyway).

Hah, I bet its southsamurai, I've also seen him around talking about his chicken(s?). I've never considered having a chicken before but now it's on my mind.

Part of me wants to try and adopt a raccoon but I know I wouldn't be a good parent to such a mischievous little gremlin. A regular puppy is enough for me.

It is indeed. It's fun that Lemmy is still that small. Besides his interest in chickens, he also has a very recognizable tone - I've seen him talk about comics, for example, and realized it was him before I looked at the username.

I have no advice about raccoons, but I wish I did.

Yeah. I think its illegal here too. (Laws dont really matter here, just do what you wanna honestly)

Yeah you can call em rescues, we obviously didnt make em participate since we got em (or any of their next generations), although did cook em up later.
