Hello I’m new here I have been an owner of indoor pet chickens for about a year. I put a picture below.I wanted to ask how can I go about leaving my chickens while I’m at work.i know they are very social birds

Hiya, and welcome to BYC!

Since you've had those beauties in your home for a year, do you have a room for them or a room you could put them in while you're gone?

Beautiful birds! I would recommend getting a dog kennel to keep them in while you’re at work. I have an article about house chickens here if you want to check it out.

Yeah I have a space dedicated to them in my living room close to the garage but I feel like they would get “stressed” being in that place while I’m at work.Cause my brother would take care of them and take them outside but he started school and know they are left alone he comes home during lunch to let them out a little.

If you have a TV there, point it in their direction. If not, get a boom box or even an alarm clock with a radio on it. Leave it on all day while you're gone. That way, it's not dead silence when nobody's around, and they wouldn't hear any outside noises that could startle them.

That’s I good idea I”ll try it tomorrow cause today when I came home it sounded like she lost her voice so it got me worried.

Just wondering… What is wrong with an outside coop with run or a hoop coop to spend the day?

Hi, cute birds, thanks for sharing a photo. Good suggestion from @Debbie292d about a radio or tv to make some background noise. Plus, there are 2 of them so they'll keep each other company (unlike having a single bird).
