Honey Boo Boo Plays Chicken, Adopts New Pet

According to mother June Shannon, Honey Boo Boo is playing a lot of chicken these days. Literally!

The young reality star, whose pig Glitzy received a great deal of air time during season one of her family's reality show, has gotten close to another four-legged friend.

"meet Alanas new pet NUGGET," June wrote on Facebook today, including a photo of the seven-year old holding a chicken. "her and nugget have became very attached this weekend…".

Shannon adds that the bird "has a outside house too but alana refuses to let her sleep outside." Therefore, Nugget "sleeps inside at night in her inside cage."

The family, of course, had to give Glitzy back to his breeder after the pig became too demanding, so let's all hope a similar face doesn't await Nugget.

But if it does... well, Honey Boo Boo and company will eat very well that night!
