I have no plans to raise chickens, and for that, my homeowners’ association is grateful. But while in London, I spotted Celia Lewis‘ delightfully illustrated guide to chickens and it got me thinking that perhaps I should/could. I can’t, but I can buy one of her beautiful chicken watercolors instead and frame it.

And in a stroke of luck, the US version of Celia’s book, The Illustrated Guide to Chickens, is available at Barnes & Noble for $8.08. A bargain by any measure.
