Go to the dollar store and buy the ugliest broom they've got. Then take it home run it over with the car a few times, beat it against the side of the house, maybe let the dog chew on it awhile. Then chase your chickens with it just one time. Kazaam! An evil broom!
I've got an evil leaf rake, but they also think my gardening gloves are evil. They are only allowed to "free range" when I'm outside to keep an eye on them- and that's when I do my gardening. When they go off limits, or it's time to return to their run, I clap my gloves together to make them run (the closer to their tails, the better!)
I have an evil tomato stake. My chickens hate it with a passion. When I herd them inside from the run I use the stick and it's almost like a chicken stampede because whoever's last get poked in the butt. They hate it when I do that.
It's SO funny to see like 11 chickens trying to get through a 2 1/2 foot by 5 foot door.
