What is he doing?
Our take

| I dont really expect an answer because ive kinda just accepted that Arnie is just little bit weird. I've had hens before, years ago now, and they would squat down in the submissive squat but this feels different. He also seems too young to be doing that anyway? I dont know. Maybe ive just forgotten what the squat looks like. The other thing is he does it when im a few metres away from him, it feels more like hes trying to tell me to come over. Obviously here he is on my chair and doesnt move, but generally when I approach he gets back up and starts walking which is why I feel like hes beckoning me over, but I have never seen a chicken do this before why is he so weird [link] [comments] |

- So incredibly dramaticGuys…..I’ve seen my chickens go into fight or flight mode over some pretty silly things…..A rabbit, a Walmart bag, bright colored clothing….This one might take the cake. I got my chickens one of those big treat blocks. Just a big square with different seeds and treats in it. I thought my flock would love that, especially since it’s been too cold to free range this week. I was so wrong. In fact, I don’t think I’ve ever been so wrong in my life 😂 The second those birds laid their eyes on that thing, they were screaming and fighting to get away from it. I gently placed it in the run, which caused 2 hens to somehow escape the run through the tiniest little spot that I honestly didn’t know existed. One hen straight up shoulder-checked the main door and escaped to the yard. The roosters were holding onto the hens for reassurance and safety. The ducks were speechless and frozen in fear. I also was speechless and frozen in fear because I’ve never seen my chickens react like that ever in my 6 years of chicken-tending. For a second I was afraid I had a grizzly bear following me or something, because what the hell was that ?! 😂😂😂 My poor babies! As I type this, I’m sitting in the run and gently petting the block of treats to reassure my chickens that it doesn’t bite. How did I get here?
