Featured Video: The Return of Chicken Hat


Exactly one month ago, we met a horse named Rocky who had an odd friendship with a chicken at his farm. Was it a friendship, or was the hen using Rocky for his height? Or was Rocky using the hen to keep his head warm (and fashionable!)? It’s hard to know for sure.



What we do know is that a Quarter Horse named Hank shares a similar relationship with his avian companion, Pepper. What’s happening to the horses and hens of America? Are they plotting something? Should we be alarmed?
