Do you have a way to "call" your flock to you?

[Shirl64]

Most of mine will run up to anyone who comes outside, & I also have a container with treats in it (usually mealworms). When I want them to go back in their run, I stand at the door, shake the container, & call "ChickENS! ChickENS!" & they run right inside.

I have one very skittish bird who doesn't like people & won't come to anyone. She'll run over with the rest, but hang back until I stop calling & step away from the door. Then she'll circle far around me & rush in the side. Drives me a little crazy, because sometimes the other birds finish their snack & start leaving by that time. But at least I know I can get them right back once she's in.

I used to feed them with a blue scoop, and now they run towards me if I am carrying or wearing anything that is blue!

Think of Beyoncé song Single Ladies now change it to chicken ladies and thats how I get their attention plus shaking a bag of sunflower seeds

I yell, "Chick, chick, chick, chick, chick-op!" in a sing-song voice and the whole flock comes running.

I do something similar. Only I add and extra series of clicks after the first part of the call.

Chickens are hilarious! Mine do come as soon as they hear the bell on the gate but all will come when I call...
Here Chee Chee Cheese. So funny. If my husband comes home , they come running, look at him and leave! Bahhhhh!

I bought a cool little used bell on ebay for $10. and call my chickens in this way, I then reward them with a Piñata mix. So when I get little visitors they get to experience the thrill of the mad chicken rush by ringing the bell ♡.

Works terrific, beautiful & fun.
