They only live for 2/3 years. I think they make better pets for kids though as they aren't strictly nocturnal, like hamsters & other small furries are.

Flower-bed turned chicken-bed.

Here they're thinking about whether they're going to let me out in to the garden or not.

We gave them a black cockerel, but they didn't like him. I think they're racists! :(

That's about how long I thought. I agree, they make much better pets for kids. We had hamsters and gerbils when I was little and they would really bite! But the rats don't bite at all so the Things can handle them and enjoy it.

Welcome Bascule42! :D Is that a dog and a cat together in the basket in that last picture?

So many great pets everyone! Love the chickens Casaninbetween. This year at the fair there were some amazing looking chickens. I never knew they could be so colorful, they looked like works of art!
