Even in 'mutt' breeds they run different. I have three EEs, and each one has her own gait! My favorite of all my chickies is the 'run run run, oh no - the others are beating me to the treats, I will flap my wings and run and maybe fly 4-8 feet and cluck loudly like I'm in distress and hope they stop so I can catch up and/or pass' run.

I suppose that would work for large scales but for more exact weights you would need something a bit more high tech with zero function and what not idk really I've never weighed a chicken I've only used scales a lot

Pack of dogs has ended my chicken adventure for now. Only my Chihuahua and the cats survived. Dog is at the animal hospital after surgery tonight. 2 cats in hospital then released. Only 1 of the 3 murderers survived the GSWs.

Wow.. I understand you had to do what you had to do... Might have mixed feeling about the method used but... I guess you had to do it...
So sorry about what's happened that's very tragic so three dogs came in and killed all your birds attacked your chauhuahua and two cats? I hope you are ok.. That many animals killed I would think it was more then just three... I'd keep an eye out for more... But I hope everything gets better. There were acouple dogs roaming around here but they didn't seem interested in coming near my house. I was walking Malcolm ATM he is a pit mix they watched him for awhile and after he was done chasing a butterfly he realized they were there and a short stair down began with them high tailing it back where ever they came from didn't see them again.
