Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Eggsistentialism: What I Learned about Life from Chickens is a humorous memoir-- Marley and Me with chickens. The author's family set out with great optimism to provide a good life for six one-day-old chicks rescued from a feed store, a life without beak amputations, overcrowded battery cages, and an ignominious end at a slaughterhouse.

It turns out that raising chickens is not easy. The hens had had heart-stopping close encounters with everything from killer Barred Owls to prolapsed egg vents. As the months passed, and the author and her husband became more proficient at caring for their pets, they reaped an unexpected bonus: they discovered that chickens are intelligent, curious animals which live joyfully and fully in the moment and form strong bonds with each other and their caregivers. They also learned there is no such thing as a free omelet. This item is printed on demand.
