    My Handicapped Chicken

    We had our first chicken tragedy on the farm this year. My red sexlink chickens were about 4 months old when one was savagely attacked by a raccoon, as I was coming out to lock the birds up. I ran out and snatched her from the racoon's grasp. The chicken's leg was badly broken from being...
