The famous 11th street chicken when last spotted in 2008
From the Columbia Heights listserv:
“On Sunday morning, a black chicken was found wandering in the alley between Fairmont and Girard, between 11th and 13th. Did anyone lose a member of their flock during the storm?”
Another member noted that we had spoken about the famous 11th Street chicken (pictured here) back in July 2008. Unfortunately in the past we have discussed the possibility of illegal cock fighting in Columbia Heights. Let’s hope this is just another sighting of the famous 11th Street chicken surveying her domain.
