    Dumbest Things People Have Said About Your Chickens/Eggs/Meat

    My six yr old still thinks the roosters are getting piggy back rides. My mom didn't believe that my chicks knnow their names until I showed her. I have 24 and they all have names. Some of them have even changed. My banty went from 'nice' to little momma after she went broody. My 'big red'...

    pea-newby

    Will it hurt them if they get into chicken food - and vice versa? They will probably have to be in the same area - but the area is big - and I will segregate with a fence. My daughter works at the zoo - and these are chicks from those peafowl - the mommas and daddies pretty much free range...

    Chickens moved into the doghouse with the dog still in it..

    My dog goes in the same yard with the chickens every morning. He quickly learned how warm the coop is and goes in and lays with them. He's got space where there is no poo. They are so cute. I think his scent helps keep predators away too.

    Catching chickens

    I do wait untl roosting time. I also sneak cuddles from my roo lol. I do have a big bell in my yard that I have them trained to come to. Soooo worth the time it took to do it. Although if they have found a stash of bugs they are reluctant to come even with the bell. Then the whole...

    Do book editors not proof this stuff?!

    maybe she meant to say that roosters are fertile from april 1 UNTIL March 31 ... lol what scares me most - is the birds that have suffered because their owners read that book the only experts i trust anymore are on BYC - and even then I use common sense

    What is the best way train your chickens to come into the coop..

    get a bell - a loud one - like a cow bell... whenever you feed them the worms - in the coop -ring the bell... they soon learn to associate the bell with food - espcially if it is a treat they really like - it works on mine ... i've given them treats with a bell since they were babies - and now...
