Chicken face

THE PHOTOGRAPHS for Living with Chickens document the lives of chickens in New England through the seasons. Under the careful supervision of their owners, the birds are allowed to roam the woods and garden during the day. Some were fortunate to have a piglet to cozy up with at night.

Thanks are due to chicken farmers Carrie Maynard, Tom Powers and Lianne Thomashow, the Vermont Bird Fanciers Club, author Jay Rossier and especially editor Ann Treistman at The Lyons Press.
