Chickens make great pets, besides supplying eggs for your family

Two of Renee Shannon’s five chickens, which she got during the quarantine.

Renee Shannon has been raising five chickens in her Worthington home in Ohio, the United States, for more than two months now, but she still can’t tell any of them apart except for one.

That would be Angel, named because she likes to sit on top of the feeder and because she has emerged as the “head chick” in Shannon’s eyes. The rest are identified by different coloured bands around their legs.
