I was bent down messing with the waterer and he launched himself at my head. I admit I kicked him. I was so shocked and it was my first defence. He came at me again. I've grabbed him and carried him around. Checked him over and basically pestered him for 10 min straight... then he left me alone for a few days.
I swear he has vision problems or something. He doesn't run up and try to attack me. But if I move a certain way he thinks I'm attacking him.

I tried all that. I tried walking around him, thru him, avoiding him altogether. I carried brooms, rakes, etc. Those things kept him at bay, but i was always still nervous and had to keep an eye on him. Maybe the tree branch was more for my benefit, in my own mind to know that even though he could cause some pain, I was still the bigger tater.

I’m so sorry.
This is the hard part of having chickens.
When I started out even though I’d been reading about chickens for years and years, somehow I just never grasped how attached I’d get to them and how much time I’d spend worrying about them.
 
I'm for real, I put her in her happy place. It was beer or pinless peepers and I don't see me getting those on Marlene.:p

I didn’t even think of peepers but honestly I doubt Rosie would put up with them for a nanosecond unless you crazyglue them on.
She’s also got a big floppy comb which just makes her look so very badass.

Guess I’m makin’ a beer run tonight. Who’s commin’ with?
 
Taters....it's like she's looking through you.:eek: I'm thinking the comb ripping is the hen version of wig snatching. Btw, I had every intent of putting peepers on Marlene. I bought them, snuck in grabbed her off the roost, pretty much sat on her only to find out she has 1 functioning nose hole. Yep looks like there are 2 but 1 is a lie. So no peepers and she was really mad at me for a good week.:lau

Omg. Lol
Yeah Rosie has never challenged me before this all happened and she’s always squatted as soon as I approach her but the pst few days she’s taking off.

One more question. Don’t laugh.
Should I replace the source of water with this beer concoction (such as a sorority party)
Or just let her drink privately since she’s being confined, or should I be dosing her with as if it’s medicine?

And how many days of tying one on should make her more pleasant?
