No Way! They would never!Mine always enjoy a little extra attention.They perk right up until it's time to rejoin their sisters. I suspect a number of them of feigning it for treats & tit bits.

Please everyone, just avert your eyes. It is perfectly natural, there is no need to stare!
Are you sure you have chickens in there? That sounds like cat behavior.I have a ridiculous issue in the Chicken Palace. Maggie has learned to shut the fancy sliding chicken-door. So she shuts Elizabeth out of the coop and Elizabeth stands outside on the ladder yelling like crazy and Maggie sits on the roost looking smug. I must move the cameras over the weekend so I can capture this in action and figure and how on earth she does it. But it must be Maggie because Diana is sometimes locked in with Maggie and sometimes locked out with Elizabeth. I am going to have to put another latch on to stop her locking her sisters out!
Hope she feels better soon so you can too .. I don't know so just asking - Is long tern aspirin okay. I know i could cause stomack upset in peopleThanks. It's really hard. I've never had to deal with a sick hen before this season. I think it's all the rain.
I do have one of the staff members helping me with this in PM messages. We started talking about it when Queen Victoria got sick. It has been a process. Antibiotics and aspirin seem to be the only thing she responds to. Just going to keep it up, but for longer this time. I will also give her some probiotics because antibiotics wipe out even the good bacteria.
I'm just sharing it here because I need some moral support.![]()
