I love chickens. Lots of fond memories chasing after hens in my grandpa's backyard as a kid. We would put a basket over them, and ten minutes later, a fresh egg would appear. And then ten minutes later I would be eating scrambled eggs for breakfast.
- nickpsecurity 7y agoTheir sounds and movements are just really funny to me. They can also have interesting personalities. On occasion, one or two will be fairly smart in a tactical way, too. (Goats are similar.) Our family had them at different times. One thing I saw in action was the Pecking Order. The alphas were jerks to the younger and smaller ones. They'd even eat when they probably weren't hungry. Starving them. So, I enjoyed chasing them away or holding them while the others got to eat first. I'm sure their massive egos suffered a great deal watching that display. Haha.
