Anyone have luck catching a feral chicken?? UPDATE: Rooster caught, no hen

I can just imagine the smell.

None of us have to IMAGINE silly!
We're CHICKEN people!

Ogicmu ( just made that up on the fly . Maybe it'll become a thing! )
Or maybe it already is...

I'm not sure I even understand cecal poo.....I mean really.....how can something come out of a live animal and smell that horrendous??

You must not have had a brother...

I mean the smell of baking poop, never smelled it before.

That's extra gross.

Doesn’t pass gas, but needs a lap to sit on. Sadly, she cannot find one.

Occasionally she will quietly pass a “poo” sound. I think it is due to age.

Just got a notice on my door: they will be filming a movie called "Alex and Me" all next week on my block. The movie is going to be about a Gray Parrot! So y'all can think about me while I can't find a parking place due to the parrot movie.

That happened to my friend where they shot a movie in her neighbor's apt. There were days when she couldn't get in & out of her apt, so eventually they paid for her & her husband to stay in a hotel for a couple weeks.
Funny... now that I think about it, she announced she was pregnant not long after that.

Hmm...i live far from forests, so i havent had this happen ever. But maybe let your chickens our and see if they interact. If they do, make the same calling noise, or chirping, or bocking or whatever noises they make. But first practice it, until you get it right.

If that doesn't work, try getting a kennel, or a crate. make a pretty good trail made of corn or seeds or just any treat. maybe make it like a little house? Put water and food so they like it there. then one day close the door while there are in it and there.

If that doesn't work, or you don't want to do it like that, you can make a trail into the coop?

Or do the house thing, but instead just make the trail and put a pile of the treat or you could just use food, and close it right when she comes. But then if you wanted to do the the house one, she wouldn't go in the crate again if you messed up.

Also, is it a boy or girl? what does the chirping sound like? and does it crow?

I hope this helps! this is all i could think of!
