Dangerous Living Conditions for Silky Chickens and Other Pets

The Walnut does have a small grass...landing strip... if you will. We grew it ourselves using a non-conventional method of covering our entire yard with burlap sack in hopes that it would yield the luscious green lawn promised to us by the hardware store employee who sold us 15 feet of burlap.

Unfortunately, the environment of northwest DC is a relatively violent place to rear chickens, puppies, and even to leave adult humans unattended. The Georgetown cuddler is the number one offender in our parts, thus far he is most famous for getting in bed with - and then doing no further harm to - random sleeping women, but there is no telling what he might do to the silky likes of mk and ash.

Furthermore, one of my roommates is highly prone to lighting fires in our fireplace which i suspect has no ventilation whatsoever and also has a distinct fondness of grilled chicken. So far he usually inlists the aid of the panini machine for grilling and safeway for the meat... but his manly instincts may kick if he were to see two long-furred delicacies prancing delectably around our front yard.

Imagine the horror of arriving home from work and finding him skewering mary kate with a fire place poker... or worse yet, constructing a crude rotissery contraption in the fireplace and seasoning ashley to be roasted over an open fire. ghastly. Dont get me wrong, I am not accusing the roommate in question of having any violent tendencies whatsoever. I am merely saying that you cannot be too careful.

And with the election looming large, there really is no end to the traumatic possibilities of what some crazy person might do if they saw me parading around town with chickens on a leash.

What about you Spicy? Are there any indoor facilities in your building for jsc's? I would imagine that new york would have at least one jsc grooming salon and organic chicken feed coop.
