When the head peep got home from work on Friday, there was a gift waiting for Ashton by the front door. What could possibly be in this complete surprise gift?

    A dancing chicken! We’ve never seen a dancing chicken. Of course, we’ve never seen any kind of (live) chicken. πŸ˜› It looks like a pretty cool thing to have in your chicken emporium.
