You know you're a backyard chicken owner when...

When you might be driving 4-6 hours round trip to buy a chicken

When you reach into your pocket at the grocery store and find an egg, then wonder if they will think you stole it...

Lol

Came home and found this note stuck in my door...

Santa brought one of these for Christmas.

They avoid it like the plague..lol!! Only time will tell.

I made swings for mine and they will have nothing to do with them! I was so bummed. But they spruced up the run a little

We had to stabilize our swing some so it doesn't Swing so freely. Now they use it. It still moves, just not as high and long as before.

Sometimes I wonder if my neighbor can hear me? I talk to my girls too.

Don't we all? We're all normal here!

 

[CCUK]

I worry about people who don't talk to their chickens. They do talk back .

Some people just don't get it! I know what they want just by the look on their little faces!!

When you moan like hell because the pet rabbit digs a hole in the corner of the garden and don't say a word about several large dust bowls in the middle of the garden the chickens dug!

My girls always seemed to pick the places that I had just planted bulbs or plants as a perfect spot to dustbathe even though I mulched under their favorite pine tree, but no they have to dust bathe in the newly landscaped garden
