Newton: Ashton, what’s this?

Ashton: That’s my chicken magazine! Miss Connie from Tails from the Foster Kittens sent it to me.

Newton: I think it went bad. It doesn’t smell like chicken at all.

Ashton: No, don’t bury my magazine! It smells just fine.

Ashton: I’m trying to learn about how where chickens come from so I can make sure I have enough for my chicken emporium.

Ashton: Would you believe they say that chickens come from back yards? Have you ever seen one in our back yard?

Newton: Let me see that. There’s no way our back yard is growing chickens. I would have noticed.

    Apparently the humans once lived in a neighborhood where one of the houses had chickens growing in their backyard! They could hear the rooster every day! So it does happen.

    We’re watching our backyard and there are no chick-hens. We did have some ducks though but Dad chased them away because they were going to poop in the pool. Do you think he scared the chick-hens too?

    Goodluck on sighting one of those. The only chicken we have seen is hairless, headless, golden brown and smells yummy. It comes in its own PTU and the mom always says it came from COSTCO.

    Newton is such a good brother! On the open magazine shots, I couldn’t help but think of a meme with a picture of a cat (sitting in a Friskies box no less) staring at a Cat Fancy “centerfold” – with the caption, “Yeah, yeah … I only care about the articles!”
