DERBY - All ages are invited to join us at 4 p.m. Thursday in our garden at Derby Neck Library with Joel the Chicken Expert and his flock of feathered friends! 

Joel will tell us all about how to care for chickens, types of chickens, and more on what living with a flock is all about. 

Afterwards, attendees will be able to ask Joel questions and pet the chickens.

The Library is at 307 Hawthorne Ave.
