I have seen people who abuse their kids in the same way. "Makes them Tough." no it doesn't. It beats them up. I think it's a good idea to video the hens stmpeding for food. If they can't understand this, they are abusers. I believe hens would rather find their own food, if there was food to find. My hens have enough food, yet, they love being out and about, looking for their own. By the way the hens act, there is not enough for them to find. Give me their number and I'll call the authorities. I hate abuse, planned or just unaware. It's all the same if you're hungry.Thank you. That's the plan. I just hope they don't take it as an assault on their pride. I'd tried the whole "believe me, I've learned this the hard way" humble approach (which is an honest one--i've learned what I have through others and my own mistakes) and the one where I send detailed articles from BYC, like on ventilation, and they kinda smile and nod and ignore it. But I will give it a go. If this doesn't work I will likely be a sucker buying double my feed so I can help them, because I don't know that I could call animal control. Beyond this, we have a great relationship and I care about them. They just have "toughen up" (or lackadaisical) attitude about their birds.
