Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

What's the name of your chicken and do you have a picture perhaps? I'm genuinely curious. I've heard of an old acquaintance who also had a pet chicken, but it's just hard to imagine.
Her name is cricket. She's what's called a "midnight majesty" marans. I don't have a picture with me currently, and I know I'll forget by the time I get home. But she's this gorgeous black that gets a green iridescence in the sunlight.
She's called cricket because when we got her, we had to drive all day and it was night time on the way home, and she was making cute little cricket noises the whole way. She's old enough now that it doesn't sound the same, but it was the trills that sleepy, contented chickens make. She was small enough to just sit nestled in my kid's hand at the time.
