Behold! The Noble Chicken!
Chickens, and, in fact, all birds, should be respected and admired, for they are living dinosaurs. Rationale: The coop/ condo was getting crowded and noisy. There were also frequent (to some) humorous and (to others) appalling, comments about chicken barbeques. So with some sorrow, as well as collective relief in the Pawley/Handlos domain, Tooge gave Hisu and all the chicks, except Banchin, to a local pet store which did not have large pythons. The owner has chickens on her ranch (hopefully.) The journey continued last Easter when Wayne gave Tooge the present of four designer chicks. Since, Tooge had just read the DaVinci Code, she named them Newton (as in "Sir Isaac"), DaVinci (as in "Leonardo"), Botticelli (as in "Zandro") and Hugo (as in "Victor.") The Early Collection

F *What is that white stuff? (Uncle Bill) Answer: It is not Hugo's feathers, it is a necessary by-product of chickens. As every chicken-lover knows, birds do not pee. Crystals of urate from the chicken's kidneys are "the white stuff." *Is it normal for chickens to follow their keepers around the yard? (Neighbor)
*Does Tooge need therapy? (author) Ans: Everyone needs to regain balance in a demanding world. Update (Jan. 2008): Coop Mahal became a microcosm of the world - conflict, lust, joy, aggression, trauma and, yes, change. Asai (the Matriarch), DaVinci, Bottecelli, Fluffy L'Amour and eight daughters of Fluffy x ???? remain. No longer with us: Hisu lapsed into a state of constant hysteria, which caused chaos in the Coop. He was given away. Banchin, Hisu's son, inherited his father's mental problems, and died, perhaps of depression. Pteridactyl Hugo and Newton became very aggressive. They were dispatched (a.k.a. killed) by Wayne after many attacks and a bite on Wayne's ear. The Handlos-Pawley estate has an impressive and ever-expanding pet cemetary.
