This is no ordinary geocaching trading item!

2012 Chicken #5 is a FarmtagZ Travel Bug, traveling from geocache to geocache on a very specific mission.

Trackable ItemIf you do not intend to log your visit on the Geocaching.com web site, please DO NOT TAKE THIS ITEM. Its travels and its progress requires you to log that it is being taken from this geocache. You will also need to log when you place it in another geocache. It's easy!

If you are willing to log your part of this Trackable's journey and place it in another geocache as soon as possible (after you log your find), grab it from this geocache.

My Current Goal:

2012 is undoubtedly the year of the London Olympics, but it's a momentous year for chickens - the 1999 EU directive banning the use of battery cages finally comes in to force. This little trackable chicken has a very simple mission, to spread awareness. In the event he should wander beyond the European Union, then he'll raise awareness in other countries, many of whom still keep chickens in battery cages. Thanks for transporting our chicken, one of several 'escaped chickens,' each of which has a mission to complete.
