Don't Leave your backdoor open when the girls are free-ranging.

The dog's face clearly says, "Remind me why these things are in here? And when they're leaving?" I remember when my chickens came inside the house, they had a good time but we herded them out. We have a fence keeping them away from the back door. But sometimes the bantam decides to squeeze under it then stand up, opening the gate and letting them onto the patio, and, if the backdoor is open, into the house. They're getting too smart for us. Put bricks underneath the crack? Nope! Take advantage of the wind... I think they win.

Lol!

Brenda the British chicken. All she wants is a sofa, the poor girl! It's okay Brenda, don't we all want a sofa?

Just be glad you don't also have goats, pigs, sheep etc

So true!! Trying to get in the house alone when my goats are out is a reverse Houdini skill that I haven't yet mastered, although I'd say I have an 89% success rate which isn't half bad...

As long as they don't knock anything over or make any messes, I think you have an 100% success rate in my books. They are so cute though... Mischievous, yet adorable!

And the dog’s just sitting there thinking, “whaaaaaaa??”

Do yourself a favor and don't leave your backdoor open when the girls are out free-ranging. They will quickly take over ownership of your home.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

Mine have done the same thing! I have a pic (somewhere) of one sitting in the recliner with a beer on a table beside her. It just looks so funny. Mine never went into the bedrooms either. Yours just took possession of your whole house. Mine stopped where the Tv was on and up into the recliner for some relaxation.

What is it with chickens and tv? LOL 9 Volt will watch for HOURS and seems to get upset when there's a game on and he's not out on "his" couch, watching with us. (Pacing in his tub, banging his beak/head into the side, constant chicken-grumbling)

It's a wonder any of our CHILDREN have jobs if our CHICKEN is a couch potato!

I’m guessing this happens more often than we think. I had one come in but I didn’t let her stay long. Lol
