I am SOO ticked at my xxxx chickens. Here's the deal. Out of 15 chickens/roos I finally have ONE that wont run from me and will let me pick her up. She will sit between my legs when I"m in the coop and if I pick her up she'll just hunker down and sleep. She's my sweetie and the only one I've named since I can tell her apart. So the past few days since she accepted me I sit with her for about an hour in the evening and occasionally a curious chicken/roo will come to my lap to see what's going on but they still don't want to be petted so they fly away after a few pats. So yesterday I walk into the coop and who do you know walks right up to me to be picked up? Theresa my sweet chicken. Okay I pick her up and one of the other chicken/roos is watching us. She/he flys up to the table then up onto my shoulder and before I know it HE PECKS MY EAR!!! I have time to raise my hand up to my ear just in time to catch the earring back before it falls. HE ATE MY EARRING!!! ARGHHH. I wore those earrings on my wedding day. I didn't know a chicken would do that. Ohh I am so ticked. I know it's horrible but I kinda sorta hope he didn't make it through the night so I can know which little xxxx it was and get my earring back. Don't get me wrong, I love the rest of them and spend quite a bit of time just hanging out with them, but this one little brat ate my wedding earring. Grr. Okay thanks for the vent.
