What does "Must Have Crate" mean to you?

Well, once you give them the chickens and they give you the money, the transaction is over and you have no say about their treatment after that.

I understand you want them to be treated well. A ride in any container isn't really going to matter, as long as they can breath. I'm not sure why riding in the trunk would be a big deal either.

When I think "crate" the first thing that pops into my mind is a milk crate, but it's not on the list for voting.

Metal or plastic?

If it happens again, make the holes in the boxes they bring yourself

Never thought of using a milk crate.

Because it is bumpy, stuffy and you can't hear the radio.

Actually, when my flock were just babies, they seemed to really like when I played the guitar to them.

I don't doubt it one bit. I sang to mine hopefully they liked it. Chickens can't clap so i'll never really know.

Nothing got my brooder chicks to settle down and stop the evening scream-fest faster than playing some music. I refrained from inflicting the mental scarring my singing would cause, but I did toss a random mix from Youtube on in the evenings. I discovered that they particularly liked George Michael, of all things.

Hehe, the ears want what the ears want I suppose. Besides my caterwalling these last ones seemed to enjoy Joji and George Jones. Maybe they got a thing for Georges?
