A Bucket Of Chicken
Sep 17th 2008Rural WriterFarm Critters
No, this bucket of chicken isn’t Colonel Sanders KFC.
It’s not any kind of processed chicken at all! This one is still completely in the natural state…
Now, her choice of a nesting site isn’t exactly all natural. I mean, she’s a pretty trendy chick here to be choosing a bright purple bucket for her pad!
Just gives a “bucket of chicken” a whole new meaning, doesn’t it?
