Funny chicken stories

We had a delaware rooster named tommy at one time (Where do ya think my username came from, eh? some days I do wish I could change it, because that rooster was an EVIL one Didn't really think that one through too far. xD) Anywho, Tommy was an evil rooster. He constantly attacked everyone, exept my mom. I have two silly stories about Tommy..

One-- I had a friend over one day, and she was picking up some hay off the barn floor to hand feed to our horses.. Well Tommy came flying through the barn, and charged at her. Never scratched her, just ran towards her. She screamed and ran so fast up onto the tractor. At the time it wasn't too funny, but looking back on it, it was hilarious. This big ole Delaware rooster pacing back and forth by the tractor tire, he was too, standing by the big tire and picking grit. She was screaming at me to take him away, and wouldn't come down until I put him in a cage.

Second Tommy story was actually a funny one, to anyone. I said he attacked everyone but my mom. He knew who was in charge!! One day mom was out walking around and she hears that charectaristic thumping of a heavy bird running up behind her, she turns around and sure enough here's Tommy. He takes one look at her and mom told me he got this look on his face of "ooohhh CRAP!! You're not Leah." (Me.) And mom told him: "You better apologize and turn around and walk away." Funniest thing was he turned and walked away, almost like he was sulking.

We wound up eating Tommy after he scratched me in the face. Not worth the risk of someone losing an eyeball. But I have plenty of other funny chicken stories I can share at a later date.

I know this is an old thread, but I'd glad it exists because I had a really funny experience yesterday with one of my hens! I typically let my ten hens roam by backyard freely during the day unless the weather is really bad, it's all fenced in and they really can't go anywhere. So.. out of nowhere I heard my doorbell ring and I peeked out the window and all I saw was my little bantam white crested black polish hen running down the sidewalk! I ran out my door and I saw ahead of her were two boys on bicycles. Two boys in bicycles being chased by a little polish hen waddling as fast as she can with that crazy white puff crest bobbing. (She loves people..) so I ran over and picked her up and the kid asked me "is that yours? It came from your lawn" and I told him yes, they live in the back and have never got out front before, and I thanked him and apologized. He seemed so confused, he then asked "is that a chicken?" LOL guess most people don't expect to see polish hens crazy head feathers lol but I just told him yes and told them about the breed.. he must have gone home and told all his family and friends that a crazy looking chicken chased him down the sidewalk! LOL

Tina and Kisses are cute. I like this punk style hairdo (featherdo) of Polish chickens but I don't have any. When I read your story above, I just couldn't resist and took a random Polish chicken picture from the internet and worked it over to change it into a little monster...

Aw haha yes! The punk look is one of the things i m enjoy about them lol. Especially in the rain haha. And great job on that photo!, really funny though, I like it!
 
So Polish Crested hens have waddles too? Only 4 of my 12 Polish Crested have waddles, and at least 2 of those have been crowing. They were all supposed to be hens, and I am not allowed to have roosters in town. I am trying to figure out if the ones with waddles are roosters or not since I need to re-home them.
