Can I see your indoor/house chickens?

Chickens are strange creatures. I think if I had to leave farm life, I would take a hen with me, lol.

I'm partial to d'uccles, especially the hens, who are so sweet, and I'd keep mine for a housepet too! (In a place with no carpet of course, and her own little 'pen')

chicken diapers are cool!!!!! they dont mind them either. luvmychix makes some awesome ones on here. I got a few last week and my little girl May could care less. They work great too.

Thanks for starting this thread. I was beginning to feel like I was a big weirdo for having a house chicken. One of my Buff Orps got attacked by her coop mates, so I've had her indoors for about a week so far while she heals. I'm getting rather fond of her.... I don't know if I want to put her back!

i wish i could keepmine inside. I got the diaper in hopes of bringing mine inside once in awhile. You guys are sooo lucky! If my DH woulnt divorce me, they would all be inside with me! I really wish we could just potty train them.

My hubby refuses to allow my chickens inside. "NOT WITH THE 2 CATS, AND 2 DOGS, NO!" I wish those chicken diapers were available at the ag shop. I could pick up a monthly supply while I'm buying feed.

My hen Ophelia was a house chicken for a few weeks while she was recovering. We let her roam the house sometimes and just cleaned the poop us as soon as she did it.It was funny having a clucker in the house!

I have a barred Rock I wouldn't mind coming in the house. My boy friend has refused to allow her inside. She is more like a pet than an egg producer. She follows me around like a lost puppy when I am outside.
