I said children, not chickens, lol. 🤣

Good point, thanks. These are also things children can learn and understand, IMO.

I don't see why the idea of "explaining" polygamy would be an issue. Children can understand that chickens are not people.

Love Heart??? 😢 And Chick? 🐥 💔 Well.. that's nature, I guess. Every story must have an end. How's Trace taking it?

That's okay, it's still interesting. It's teaching me to observe my own birds more closely as individuals. I feel I read dogs pretty well, cats somewhat; chicken behavior is still very new to me. People ... eh. :idunno Lol.

I feel like I should be paying for this course in chicken behavior. Will there be a test later? I'm learning so much! Thanks, @centrarchid ! :hugs

This is Love Heart and chick?

Any way to fix it so chick does not keep getting left out? Worried here! Rooster is not the only one bonding to this chick! 😳

Cool!

I love it that Love Heart's "mommy" (your DD) is having this opportunity to see problems develop in nature (kind of as a result of human intervention, actually), and then also seeing how to problem-solve to get things back on track. Would be nice if she were to become a rehabilitator of wild...

I don't see that it is hurting the chickens, it is temporary, and it is an object lesson for the children.

Awww. I love this story! ❤

I see. This sounds like a wonderful learning experience for your kids. Thank you for giving them this very practical real-life experience, and also for taking the time to share it here. 😊

Congrats, @centrarchid! I'm glad, this is a thread I am happy to follow and this makes it easier to find. You guys get a little technical for me sometimes but what I am wondering now is, what do the kids think? Do chickens (in their minds) get married? Was there a ceremony? Singing, flowers? How...

Fascinating, thanks @centrarchid.
