    New rescued chicken (graphic pics)

    Well I was driving home from my nana's house and see this huge white chicken in the middle of the road. Of course I pulled over. This poor little thing (or should I say big thing) fell out of a chicken truck. She sustained some injuries too. Her beak is grazed, she lost an eye, and she lost a toe, her tail is also scraped. I'm guessing she got these injuries from rolling down the road. These chickens are bred to be eaten so she is huge and fat and can only waddle. She is very sweet though. I held her in my lap on a newspaper and got blood all over me (1 1/2 hour drive) but thats ok. I just couldn't leave her in the middle of the road.






    These chickens are bred to grow very very fast. They are the size of the chickens you buy at the store when they are only 6-8 weeks old. This one is so thick and huge. I think she will make it she seems active and was walking around which most of these chickens can't do at her age. She will not live a long life though. Their hearts usually give out on them at a very early age.

    Yes she will live her life out with me. If she gets strong enough to walk around she will live with my ducks. Until then her home is a large dog kennel. I gave her food and water this morning and she had a healthy appetite. It is so funny when I walk up she will cock her head to look at me with her one good eye.
