MHS Cruelty Investigation Department received a call about a street vendor in Detroit selling a large number of baby chicks that were dyed various colors for novelty Easter gifts. Owning chickens and dying them are both violations of Detroit city ordinances. Therefore, the 190 baby chicks were surrendered to us. They are not available for placement at this time, and they will remain in our care until we can find appropriate placements for them.
