Susanna Martin answered on 20 Mar 2013:
I originally got adult chickens as a birthday present last year because my boyfriend wanted them and it stopped his parents from pestering us to have children! The baby chickens were a surprise gift and actually I think the people that gave them to us wanted to keep them for themselves!
I like chickens as a pet as they’re useful because they provide eggs.
Would you like to have chickens?

Hi Zoe
I laughed when I saw this question before I realised it was for Susie haha but I also have chickens at home, I didn’t appreciate fresh eggs until I tried some of my chickens own eggs. They are like pets to us too, they all have names and they come in the house sometimes when it’s cold!
Susie I love your profile picture, that is one comfy looking chick!

@Jen – I didn’t realise you had chickens too! It seems to be quite a common pet these days!
