I like to freeze watermelon rinds to give to the chickens. They Percy at it, and stand on it. Also, you could freeze a water bottle for them to lay next to
Help! I have three chickens that are great for me, but lately the have been really aggressive towards my mom. She does most of the taking care of them, and when she goes into their area, they attack her legs and even jump up to bite her arms! My dad says to kick them? If this isn't resolved...
My hens do the same thing to us! They are really aggressive and peck at our legs and even jump up to get at our arms! Kicking and shoving isn't working.
A few thing have worked:
1. Hold some thing up high, this scares them, they think its a hawk
2. Pet them before they come for you
Good luck!
The neighborhood dogs mostly all have electric fences, but that won't stop the chickens! We have a fenced in area that is about 20 feet wide and 30 feet long. Will they get enough exercise if they can free range in that area?
