Chickens Like Beer

[jthornton]

I was having my 5 o'clock beer with the chickens (it was 5 o'clock at my sisters house so it counts) and spilled a bit on the plastic end table next to my chair. They licked it up like it was honey. I couldn't move I had 6 pullets on my lap so I just watched them lick it up... they bring so much joy to me.

I've seen one drink coffee that someone abandoned at Ohio National.

They're underage JT! You're raising them to be delinquents.

My roo took a belt of scotch out of my glass I'm pretty sure it put hair on his chest.

Yep, my Chocolate Lab is a sneaky drunk! Lol. Not a fan of Boilo made with shine though... He got a taste of that and hacked like a cat with a 3 day hairball....

Since back in the day when we had our first litter of pigs and still to the present, my DH pours a 16 oz tall boy of beer into the "thank you" bowl.
The thank you bowl is giving to each Sow after her feeding on the evening her babies were snatched away.

I think he's a nut case for doing it but he says it takes the edge off of the separation anxiety.
Of course DH drinks one with the mama.. lol

Also we finished our last Black Angus Cow on corn and beer for 4 weeks.

Chickens are deprived of such luxury.

That's actually pretty sweet Farmer Connie.
