Thanks for sharing this. I think chickens don't get enough credit for things like this that they do. Stubby is a sweetie for adopting those chicks.
I know I feel good watching my chickens and spending time with them. Spending time with animals is good for us though. I can feel myself relax and unwind when I'm around them. They are great therapists!
