    Sorry to hear about the neighbors; who wouldn't want neighbors with chickens?

I've been told that certain breeds of chickens love field mice. If one of my neighbors wanted to keep a few chickens that loved field mice, I'd be all for it. Like centipedes and spiders in the basement, it can't hurt, right?

Ours are omnivores, both in the biological sense and in the sense that they will try to eat just about anything. For whatever reason they get really excited about dead leaves?

I heard about that. There's supposedly a patch coming in Junglefowl 52.37-12.183 update. The programmer loosefeathers found that the previous update affected all of the models running the G. g. domesticus distro. Apparently it was some kind of memory stack error that didn't manifest itself until after 1,200+ hours of uninterrupted runtime.
