Do your hens talk to you?

[PaulaSB12]

Tuesday night shift all the rest of the girls had gone to bed but one hybrid scrappy was pottering round in the garden. Now they have to go into the run if not the coop when I am on night shift as I cant shut the door behind if they are not inside by 6pm. So I carried her in and put her in the coop she whinged all the way and gave me a long telling off the moment the run door was shut. She then walked once round the run and went to bed with a defiant flick of her tail feathers.

Oh yes, my hens talk to me. I have a few that are particulary loquacious. Peeper is chatty little thing. And a lot of times they give me sass when I tell them "no" about something they have been into. It's definitely a form of enrichment that develops early on. LOL!!
