Top 10 reasons chickens are clearly better than sugargliders

1. Your pet makes your breakfast.

2.  Chickens eat your compost.

3. It’s like easter every day. (Full disclosure: I’ve never celebrated easter or anything, but I imagine this is what it’s gonna be like.)

4. Chicken Diapers

5. Chickens are the gateway animal for urban farming. (aka. I’m this much closer to owning a sheep.)

6. Chickens are low maintenance. (The alternative: Sugargliders need lots of attention and can die of lack of companionship.)

7. Timing of oviduct to pan has got to be less than 2 minutes.

8. Diversifying the poultry population reduces the risk of the possible spread of avian flu. (according to Sarah Hempel Irani of Urban Chicken Underground)

9. The Chicken Lady

10. Chicken Poop Lip Balm!
