The care with which Mr. John Aguon raises his chickens is truly admirable. At his house in Dededo, Mr. Aguon has over one hundred chickens, both roosters and hens, from breeds such as common brown egg layers to specialty breeds. He built their cages, their coops, and even a quarantine shed to house new additions from off-island.
But for Mr. Aguon, his chickens are more than just farm livestock. His birds have had a constant presence in his life.
