Welcome, Pterry. Gotta say though- in Alaska we have ptarmigan (and there used to be a local tour company that had 'Ptarmigan Ptours' painted on its bus) so your name startles me.

We have a lot of 'Chicken' names here- the story goes that the early miners didn't know how to pronounce or spell the ptarmigan they ate for Sunday dinners so they gave them a familiar name. There's even a Chicken, Alaska, whose name came about the same way. And I myself live on Chicken Ridge.

So much for that... Welcome, Pterry!
