A craving for chicken

The weather has scrambled my brain so egg-like, I want my momma: friend chicken. I mean fried chicken (a telling typo!).

 

My pigeons had 2 eggs. One hatched on Monday. On Wednesday a dead newborn was lying on the ground in front of my door. On Thursday, there were 2 babies in the nest, one of which has to be at least a week or 10 days old. Very puzzling. 

 

I haven't actually eaten any chicken & it kind of turns my stomach to think of it. 

 

Nonetheless, a craving. 

 

Pigeons can feel the distress of their companions & at times will foster or adopt others' birds. 

 

Apparently, that's more than I can manage.
