My friend is hooked on Chicken TV!

[skya328]

I had been telling a friend of mine about Chicken TV. She thought it was silly, but came over anyway. I told her that they do "tricks." (Jumping in the air for treats.) Now she is in love with one of my roos...Zeus. Here's a pic of her feeding Zeus! (Mid-air, I might add!)

And this is the scene that gets chicken TV started at my house every night. When I get home from work and open the side door to the garage, they all come running and wait for their scratch, squash, grapes, cucumber, bread, etc. They weren't very patient tonight...

I love Chicken TV.

me too! Is she hooked enough to want her own chickens yet or is she still content playing with yours?

Shouldn't we call it "C.V." (for chicken tv)?

All I know is that it is great therapy and about the
same price as a psychiatrist. HA!

She is a city girl, and is content to play with mine. That's fine with me...she brought over 2 loaves of bread this last visit! Now I have chicken bread for the next week!

That's great. You know she's going to be over every day now... either that or she will get her own flock!
Isn't it funny how people think you're weird for having "pet" chickens, and then they come over and join the hype? Chickens are the best pets ever.

I agree. She is very intimidated by horses, and after 30 minutes feeding chickens she didn't even notice my big guy walk up behind her. It is very relaxing. Mindless entertainment.

Uh, yes I'm an idiot and all that, but, er, what's Chicken TV?

Chicken T V is a euphemism or what we call it when we just sit, relax, and watch our chickens go about their lives. We watch them for the entertainment value (which, btw, FAR exceeds most TV!) and is good for the soul! I love Chicken TV!
