my honey came home today, and I was telling him about Wilma's silly jealous behavior. He basically poo-pooed me and thought I was exaggerating. UNTIL... we went out to give the flock some supervised range time! Every time I squat down, or sit on the ground, the dog comes immediately for attention, so I kept standing and let him get settled. Ruby came a'begging for scratching, and within seconds, Wilma was there, baaaaaaaaaaaw'ing and pecked him twice before hopping right in his lap and sticking her fluffy butt in his face! if it weren't for the rest of the flock heading around the back of the garage, I could have run back inside to grab the camera... but flock maintenance is #1. when the gang is out, no human leaves the scene even for one minute. no exceptions. (if they stayed in/around the lilac... I could have risked it, he was sitting with Wilma only 5 feet away, but they skidaddled, so I had to follow)
He said "if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes... a jealous chicken... omg..." he was laughing like a kid who had a lap full of candy instead of a lap full of Wilma. She stayed there for a good 15 minutes. that's one he'll never forget!
Thanks Wilma!
you got your Mama's back!
