My chicks arrived today, and I forgot....

[schmije]

about keep-away!

I've been cracking up all day. I could sit and watch them for hours.... In fact, I did!

 

[Ms.FuzzyButts]

I hear ya.. I have a couple of chairs sitting out by the coop. My neighbors worry about me sitting there half the day!

Oh Me too! I love chicken football!

" KEEP- AWAY" ?????????????

Quote:
When the ladies get a hold of something they really want, instead of sensibly eating it right there and then they'll run with it. This of course draws the attention of every other bird in the area, all of whom pick up the chase. At some point one of the chasers will get the object away from the original hen and become the chasee. This continues until someone, usually a male (because that's just how they are) eats it.

Yes, Uzuri. Except that mine are 3 days old now, and they're still on paper towels on top of their bedding. They managed to wiggle a few pieces of bedding up to the top, so they're fighting over who gets to run around with them. Chicken TV is the best!
