Guess he didn't like my hat!

It's deer hunting season here in Pennsylvania, and since we live out in the country I've been wearing a blaze orange knit cap when I go to the barn. This morning, after I filled the feeder and checked for eggs, my 5-month-old Welsummer roo decided he didn't like my hat. I was leaving the barn when I heard his wings flapping, and the next thing I knew my hat was on the ground. I never even saw him coming! I whacked him with my "protection stick" but he didn't care. His hackles were up and he started attacking that hat with a vengeance! I used my stick to grab the hat and flung it to the door to get it away from him. I couldn't be mad at him because it was so funny to see him protecting the girls from that dangerous hat! Guess I won't be wearing it any more.
 
LOL!! I wore a knit cap that looks like an owl out to let the girls out the other morning and OMG they threw a fit and wouldn't come near me.

I was wearing my snowman socks with the individual toes and Martha my BPR attacked them yesterday. She kept on pecking and trying to scratch them. I kept hopping to stop her but she wouldn't hear of it. The noise she made was very odd too, she told the whole flock they were in danger and they took off into the covered run while she attacked my socks.
 
I wore my rain jacket with a hood , into the chicken house, and they were flying into walls to get away from me. I felt bad for scaring them, but who knew they were such chickens?
 
Once I wore a baseball cap into the coop (they'd never seen one before). They were all cautiously curious and one of my Buff Orpington pullets pecked it and it fell out of my hand. It looked like an explosion of chickens! They hit the walls and windows and didn't calm down until I hid the hat.
