DURANGO, Colo. (AP) - A person in a chicken costume ruffled the
feathers of Durango's city council as its members discussed rules
for backyard fowl.
At a council meeting Tuesday, someone in a chicken costume
quietly entered the council chambers just as the mayor was
discussing a recently-passed backyard hen ordinance.
The costumed chicken took a few turns, flapped its arms, then
took a seat in the nearly empty gallery.
Several minutes later, the big bird left - without identifying
itself - after laying an egg on the floor.
Council members told The Durango Herald they were perplexed by
the costumed chicken but found the visit humorous. The council
voted 3-2 earlier this month to make it easier to keep backyard
chickens.
