had a wyandotte do that to me once when i was getting eggs! got me right on the eyelid and i had to wear a big purple bandaid right over my eye! IT HURT!!!
oh well, maybe i had something there and it looked like food...idk
I had some pieces of scrambled eggs left over from fried rice...
Kids don't do this at home!
I put pieces of egg on my tongue and got close to my hens as they were filing up to roost for the night...
My americaunas (fatties) would reach out as far as they could to pick the eggs off my tongue. It felt very funny.
They're bigger than the others so they got the majority, but a little RIR (I may name squeak) figured out that if she put her head beneath the fatties heads she could push up and knock them off balance just long enough for her to grab the scrambled eggs.
Much funniness ensued as the fatties would squawk flap and try to regain their balance. They'd glare at squeak for a second but by then she had hopped over the wine-dotters to another fatty... She got many pieces of scrambled egg.
