I have this really annoying chicken.
it so didn't start off that way, but now she is becoming a pest.
I have a hundred year old mock tudor property and as such it is decorated outside in a nice black and white motif. I recently painted the building, renewing the black highlights on the window sills.
Bully, the annoying chicken, keeps jumping up on our sitting room window sill and covers it in second hand food product that has passed through her annoying body.
I have tried everything I can think of, from moving her off every time I see her there, to putting spikey strips along the window sill. I have tried fixing the spikey strips down however she just walks on top of the spikes; I tried un-fixing them so that when she tries to climb on them they wobble and she falls off, she just knocks them on the floor and struts all over the window sill.
I trained the geese to patrol the front balcony to scare her off, she just sends them packing with some ferocious fighting manoeuvres, I now have to contend with a balcony area covered in goose poop along side the chicken poop all over my window sill, wall and floor around it.
I have tried bleaching, hoping the smell will make he go away to no avail. I have locked her inside her coop for a couple of days too, but as soon as she gets set free she is back there tapping on the window and letting loose her bowel contents.
she appears to be totally fearless and will fight anything that strays in her manor if she sees fit to.
I don't want to keep her penned in, all our animals range freely during the day and go home with extra food at night. she has to be carried home as she refuses to budge from the window sill.
if she thinks you are going to take her home then she runs away and goes back to the window sill when everyone has given up.
I have re-painted that sill about 7-8 times in the past 2 months because she wrecks the paintwork. it is not cheap product either, so I am beginning to tire of her presence.
any suggestions as to how I can get her to shove off would be welcomed.
given that she has a name there is no way she will end up in the oven, she is part of our family, so any suggestions about turning her into deep fried products or giving her away is not something I would consider. but I do want her to move away elsewhere on our land so very much, there are fields of bugs and grass products she can feed upon, yet she remains like a hanging cloud of chicken peskiness.
