Pet chickens help French families reduce food waste

With its law banning supermarkets from throwing out still-good food, France has become internationlly known for its efforts to reduce food waste. But when it comes to tossing edibles, the end consumer is still the top offender -- and that's where chickens come in. For just 10 Euros and the cost of a chicken coop, families in a growing number of communities around France can adopt a pair of laying hens who will process their table scraps and maybe provide an egg or two.
