My husband and I had a pet rooster who forever changed our views about chickens. He was an amazing, beautiful creature. I swear he understood English. Chicken poop is really good for composting as it has plenty of nitrogen for the soil. We built a small pen for him to spend time outside when we weren't home. Otherwise he was free to roam in and out of the house. We even had a diaper for him so that he could cuddle on the bed with us. We talk about him everyday still and hope to have more chickens sometime in the future.
