“Mad City Chickens” Movie w/ Urban Chicken Meet & Greet | Albany

Submitted by the Event Organizer

Mad City Chickens is a sometimes serious, sometimes whimsical look at the people who keep urban chickens in their backyards. From experts and authors, to a rescued landfill chicken or an inexperienced family that takes the poultry plunge—it’s a humorous and heartfelt trip through the joys and challenges of having a backyard chickendom in the city. Scenes include the King Kong chickens of Madison, WI.

Also learn how chickens can provide

• home grown eggs and meat
• nitrogen-rich fertilizer
• pest control and companionship

It is even possible to keep chickens indoors through the use of diapers.

The film starts at 2 pm, but there will be some real chickens to visit from 1:30 pm, weather permitting.
