The Chickens of Key West

I talked to some of my friends, and they said they knew this fact but it was new to me. Key West is covered in chickens. They are everywhere. You can't take less than about 5 steps in any direction with out running into them. I read they were originally allowed to roam free for the eggs that they provided to a pretty isolated island but as grocery stores became more available and easier to stock, the chickens just kind of took over. These are good looking chickens too. Here are a few pictures of the some of them.
