I never thought I'd get attached to a chicken...

I never thought I’d find myself attached to a chicken, but here we are! Meet Rayita, my mom’s little chick who was gifted to her when she was just a few days old. Instead of heading to the chicken coop an hour and a half away, Rayita decided she’d rather stick around the house, much to everyone’s surprise. When they attempted to introduce her to a hen with two chicks, she panicked and darted after my nephews instead! Now, they’re planning to build a cozy coop right here for her. Watching Rayita's quirky personality unfold has been one of the most delightful experiences of my life. Who knew a feathered friend could bring so much joy?
