Mine tend to kick dirt into each others' faces. It's funny.

Is that what usually happens? Are hens more common or somethin'? Interesting

Last time i hatched about 6 roos!

Its some weird percentage or something idk

I reckon there should be fewer roos. Because one roo can 'get friendly' with heaps of hens

They're not like people

(Well, MOST people

)

My 'kids' attack me all the time. We're beginning to suspect eyesight issues.

Good to hear! I don't think mine are angry. They just attack anything, even if it's harmless. o.0

It hurts, doesn't it?
My chooks tend to peck me. Going down to their run without close-toed shoes is just asking for it

you've got it easy.
Have you ever had a rooster?
They do DAMAGE. I usually have bruised and scratched up legs. But occasionally if I lose focus and one attacks, I've had huge puncture wounds that are so deep. They take weeks to heal. And a few other people (friends and family) have had their legs ripped open. I've never had anything that bad though, I'm pretty good with the roosters, I know how to react.

Then I am glad I've never owned any males.

The biggest wound I've ever had is a bit of skin torn off the back of my hand. Bled for ages, dumb chooks!
