    Thanks poppycat. Well in that case, I could train her, since she hates to have her feet dirty, etc. Doesnt like mud on her feet either. She used to hold it when she was younger, as she didnt like "messing" her box, and would actually hold her poo's til I let her out to the point where I was...

    Actually I want to be serious here for a minute. I didnt realize that rabbits could be litter trained until this summer. I used to have a rabbit as a child and I dont remember it being any more or even AS smart as my chickens. Perhaps I had a really dumb rabbit, I dont know. I never tried to...

    Ok, poppycat, training it is for you, come to my house reincarnated. Or Spotted Crow's. Maybe in the winter, if I have a lot of time on my hands, I will try to papertrain my Fussy. How late is too late to start this? She is just a young adult? She STILL likes being neat tho, THAT is...

    I have also seen my chickens reason extremely simple things out, i.e. how to jump on something they cant reach by means of using other things first. Isnt that the use of simple tools in a very rudimentary fashion? I did have one chick that would actually look at something she couldnt reach but...

    David, I havent got any diapers because I was really thinking of paper training them. Would be MUCH neater in the long run and I hate changing diapers.

    David, I think CSI might be a little bit above their head. You would end up being miserable having to explain the key points of the show to them!

    OMG, this has turned into the funniest post! I am not saying they have humany emotions but like others have said, chickeny emotions. We all know they dont feel compassion, at least NORMALLY. Altho the story of the roo putting his wing over the hen in the drenching rainstorm does make you...

    Well, my chicken is out there at this moment giving me 'what for'. Not sure whats thats all about, except I had the babies out in the kitchen last night. The babies were REAL curious but the big ones, Lily stuck the tip of her beak in one of their ventilation holes after walking around them a...

    I get such a kick out of them. I agree, Bantymum, you get what you give. Mom laughed and laughed when she saw Fussy beating me up. It was like, "I WANT to hurt you for neglecting me...but not really actually hurt you, so...I will take it out on your shirt!" I sure love those silly goofy...

    I do have to wonder about this though, because I KNOW my Fussy gets terribly jealous if I am paying attention to any of the other birds than her. Also she poops on me when she is torqued. This afternoon she beat the crap out of my shirt with her beak, letting me know NOT letting her out in the...
