The famed Italian actress and model are known for her stage presence in David Lynch films, but now, she is making a book of drawings, photos and comical stories of her life with chickens in “My Chickens and I.” Rossellini lives on a Long Island farm with over 120 chickens, as she first ordered 30 of them off eBay in 2013. She documented them throughout their growth to adulthood, their funny moments and colorful feathers. “Chickens have a reputation for being stupid, but they’re not,” she told AD. “They recognize me and when I come home, they run to me, like a dog would run to its owner.”
