    It likely would not have occurred to me, either, but I have recently befriended another Lemmy user who has pet chickens. He has considerably expanded my perspective on my matter.

    I’m actually a bit surprised he hasn’t made an appearance in this thread (that I’ve seen, anyway).

      Hah, I bet its southsamurai, I’ve also seen him around talking about his chicken(s?). I’ve never considered having a chicken before but now it’s on my mind.

      Part of me wants to try and adopt a raccoon but I know I wouldn’t be a good parent to such a mischievous little gremlin. A regular puppy is enough for me.

        It is indeed. It’s fun that Lemmy is still that small. Besides his interest in chickens, he also has a very recognizable tone - I’ve seen him talk about comics, for example, and realized it was him before I looked at the username.

        I have no advice about raccoons, but I wish I did.
