So I hear this fight, a chicken fight I think, I hear a chick scream then the hens start yelling! Whaaaa? Not my girls! I check to see and the big girls have a snake that they are beating up! No roosters here, have had an egg shortage the last 3 weeks and think this guy tryin to escape the coop may be the culprit now not the heat?
So ya, they stomped him without so much of a warning for (maybe) trying for a chick... They were having none of that. I didn't even get a chance to save it and relocate if I wanted. I was shocked at my sweethearts protective behavior as a flock, but proud! Lol
Wow! That's a big snake!! I like a chicken that will kill a snake. Sorry to the snake lovers. My granddaughter and I had a big laugh last evening. A live cicada fell out of the tree in the chicken yard. Primrose got it and started running. It sounded like she had a buzzer in her beek. It wasn't quite dark and we could follow her around bec she was buzzing really loudly. Then the other girls went after her to steal it. That poor ciciada kept being passed around and buzzing. Then the buzzing stopped and everyone went back to kicking dirt. We laughed and laughed. Amanda wondered if we could hear it buzzing in her crop, but we couldn't. Lol
