Chickens=stupid

[max13077]

It was a downpour the whole day yesterday. I've worked hard to give the chickens a nice dry, draft-free home. Where were they the entire day? "Let's go play in the mud!!"

I went out this morning and they were still wet!

You never did that as a kid???

 

[max13077]

Well, not quite to the extent they did!!!

I had one BO that looked more like a RIR she had some much mud all over her. She got her first bath. Not her favorite thing!

Yes been there, done that..... I started out with White leghorns one day and in the afternoon they were Brown leghorns

Chickens aren't the sharpest tool in the shed at times. I was told by a man who's raised them for 40 years that you make them shelters just so they have the option of getting out of the rain, not because they'll actually use it.

Mine look at rainy days as a hunting trip....for worms!!

Mine go out if it's not raining hard other wise they head for the run and on to their ladder, which is covered or into the coop.

Rain=bug fest feeding frenzy. Either they will or they won't get out of the rain. Chickens is chickens as chickens are.
