Walmart chicken
Our take
Picture this: MyLove and I were at Walmart picking up some meds when she casually mentioned “that chicken.” Of course, I had no idea what she was talking about, but curiosity led us to the next turn. To our surprise, there was indeed a chicken darting around the parking lot near some bushes! After an amusing (and slightly chaotic) wrangling attempt that left me crawling on my knees, we finally managed to confine the feathery runaway. Fast forward to our home, where she’s now in quarantine, separate from our flock. Interestingly, the bottoms of her feet are almost neon yellow! If you have any ideas about this quirky chicken’s identity, I’d love to hear your thoughts. Thanks for your help!

| MyLove and I were at Walmart picking up meds. As we were leaving she asked me about “that chicken”, one I didn’t see. We drove to the next turn in and, lo and behold, a chicken running around in the parking lot near some bushes. After spending too much time trying to wrangle it we confined it mostly to the bushes. Imagine a large old bald man on his knees crawling around in the bushes, surprised the police didn’t show up! Caught, photographed and brought home. She is currently in quarantine, segregated from the rest of our flock. The bottoms of her feet are almost neon yellow. What is she? Thanks for any help you can provide! [link] [comments] |

- Rescued a terror..I got a call that a “poor baby chick” was wandering in a neighborhood for the last few weeks. She was finally captured and the “chick” was a bantam. I have no bantams, just a ton of standards, but took her home and placed her in her own mini chicken coop. The little terror has escaped twice, so now she is padlocked in. She loves to escape and fly to the highest part of the barn and taunt us. She is being treated for scaly leg mites, as well as some cuts on her body. She likes me, lets me hold and cuddle her. However, she HATES my sons and husband. Like loathes them. Someone said shes an old game hen, any other guesses? Any advice? submitted by /u/Awkward_FP322 [link] [comments]
- chicken breed?Anyone know what breed this fella is? I know absolutely nothing about chickens and work at a horse lesson barn, i think someone dumped her(?) about a week ago. She showed up in one of the pastures with a rooster, but the rooster disappeared and she stuck around. She gets pretty close to us but wont let us pick her up, so I'm assuming she's been around people before. I think my coworker owns chickens at her own farm and brought chicken food for us to give her, but i was curious on what she was lol. I think once we can manage to pick her up, the coworker with chickens was gonna try integrating her into their home group of chickens so she isn't just alone here. She doesn't seem to mind being on her own at least, she's befriended most of our horses lol. Thanks in advance if anyone knows anything about what she is! submitted by /u/SeveralTry3967 [link] [comments]
- I was given a chickenHi, my folks have always loved chickens and recently they stumbled upon a group of mixed chicks for free on marketplace. A two were very sick and one didn’t make it but I managed to nurse one back to health. Little guy follows me everywhere and is very friendly despite what I thought I knew about roosters. My only problem is that I don’t know what kind he is or if he’s mixed. Help would be greatly appreciated! submitted by /u/unsolved_Rubiks_cube [link] [comments]
