I bring my chickens a treat every day, Monday it was BOSS and Manna and some scraps.
I also like to sit out there and watch them eat and pet them and usually have a cup of coffee while I watch them. I also brought with me a wonderful apple cider doughnut with cinnamon sugar that I bought myself for a treat at the apple farm.
I sat down, put the doughnut in my lap, and proceeded to hand out the treats. I am sitting there happily watching them gobble them up when out of nowhere I am hit by a sneak attack from the side, and slightly towards the rear....right under my arm.....and there goes my doughnut in the beak of a red feathered bandit streaking away across the lawn.....
A split second later the 14 others realized what had happened and gave chase. So I had my coffee, and watched my yummy- apple- cider- with- cinnamon- sugar- much- anticipated- doughnut torn apart and devoured in about 10 seconds flat!
And then, after the carnage was over, she came back to check out my lap again, eyeballed me real good, and jumped up and pecked my coffee cup!
I suppose it is rude to show up at HER house with coffee and a doughnut and not bring her any....
