How did your flock annoy you today?

I think it would take quite a bit. Not something I'm willing to test, though!

Exactly.

My husband collected a bunch of crickets from around the property and put them in a bucket for the bantams. I then dumped the bucket of crickets into their sand box (to make it easier for them to hunt). Maybe 2 out of 12 were actually eaten. Clover was more interested in a piece of mulch, Poppy was afraid of the crickets, and Hornet must have had her fill. Actually, scratch that. Poppy became interested in one cricket, but it slightly buried itself in the sand, and she had no idea what to do.

I refuse to feel bad about not free ranging these chickens because they would stink at it.

Mine proved yesterday that they are still terrified of butterflies.

Well the Husband finally noticed Face is brooding. He is not impressed. Somebody also laid an egg under his boat, he found a small stash of 3 eggs when mowing, and everyone is molting so he thought the 1 bird loosing feathers was going into the crockpot. I had to explain molting and he is not impressed especially since the feathers are everywhere and he thinks it looks trashy. On top of all that fun Daytona has started trying to follow him into his shop. That poor man.

I have a little stool I bring into the run with me and sit and hang with the girls. Usually one or two fly onto my lap and hang out with me. But nope not today, 5 of them decided to use me as a perch at the same time. 3 on my shoulder and back and one on each arm. After getting my ears and neck pecked the 2 on my arm decided to slide off instead of jump off and have scratches all up both arms lol

Chickens are definitely the stabbiest pets!
