Chicken funny!

[Henriettamom919]

Every morning, I let my girls out, give them oats in the driveway then go back in to get my daughter ready for school. The girls are usually done with breakfast by the time we go out to the bus and after DD is off to school I'll sit outside and read while they cuddle up to me and bathe/nap.

Today, Henrietta is literally in my lap soaking up pets while I read on my Kindle. I absentmindedly grab for my coffee. My little Plymouth, Karen, buk boks at me so I look over and she's following my cup, DRINKING IT DOWN!

I chide her, sort of, and she jumps up on Henrietta trying to get to it!

Well, that certainly nails the "are my eggs organic" debate shut without a doubt

Do any of your chickens have peculiar cravings/funny habits?

I cannot believe that one of yours drank coffee! Mine have always looked at but let it go. How hyper was Karen afterwards? I cannot imagine a chicken on caffeine!

I was eating a hamburger and had all 5 of my preadults pacing the fence starting at me. Was the first and only time I gave them bread. Not quite as cute as yours, lol.

they probably would have liked a plain hamburger - they also like to eat chicken, turkeys etc.

I think I got it away in time to prevent a caffeine crash but she was mighty chatty for the rest of the day!

I had a glass of sweet tea one of mine was eyeballing and as picky as I am about food and drinks I let her have a drink right out of my glass. My GS came around the corner just at the right time and yelled GRANDMA ! Every thing went flying. tea glass, chicken, me... I honestly dont know what I was thinking cause ya, I was gonna drink it. Im glad now it went sailing through the air.
