We can all relate to cooped up chickens right now during this pandemic. Be sure to follow Angie from the Milton Public Library on her journey with her pet chicks. They’re growing up and moving from the indoors to the great outdoors soon.  Learn each one’s name and breed and be impressed with how fun they are to watch!  See a new episode every Tuesday at 2:00 pm on Facebook or YouTube.
