INDOOR PET CHICKENS... but why?

Үй жануарлары мен аңдар

My pet chickens, Ren and Tina, live in the house, poop in a diaper, and sleep on my office chair. Here are 4 reasons why I choose for them to be house chickens.

    Your spot on about chickens, I live with (four) 2 roosters, 2 hens, and work full-time at a grand resort. I own a 3 bedroom house and have a small yard. (Have free-range birds living in my yard).. [Chickens adapt quite quickly] and love to cuddle, very passionate (sociable) creatures. They are smarter than given credit for, very attentive, and interested; sound can be understood just by pitch or tone.. [Great Job!] Keep it up!!!

    I don't think many people are aware just how much these loving birds will steal your heart & have you ready to do whatever it takes to keep nosy neighbors out of your business & keep your bird babies with you!🐔💜✨

    I'm telling you....I found it!!! I'm always trying to find Betty Jean's favorite treat and it is hands-down ground up ice from the blender!!! I have to give it to her several times a day but she loves it and it gets way more fluids in her. Try it. I'm curious to see if other chickens like it??

    I have 12 wonderful hens in a heated coop, free range everyday. I'm blessed to have them. They are spoiled. I love how you treat your girls, awesome. A treat that I give my girls is chopped left over meat frozen into an ice cube (meatsickle). Also frozen tuna salad, ( I just had a bunch extra so froze it). They go nuts over it. Freezing the treats slow down the consumption and allows everyone a chance to get some. Chickens bring a lot of joy and eggs. great video.

    Excellent!!!.. I've thought my 2 roosters and their mother to poop on a piece of carpet. [How?] When a hen goes into nesting mode she never poops around her nest, the trick is to keep that mind set for your hen or rooster. Great work, don't stop!!

    Can you elaborate more on how you did this? I'd love to train my house chickens to do the same.

    Ren looks very similar to my bantam hen, Bee. Same feathers and all. Very cute and are so adorable and innocent with my other bantams. We named her Bee because when she was a small chick, she had a design that looked like bee stripes on the top of her head.

    Do you keep your pet chicken in a coop in the house? If so... What size is it? What's it made of? How often do you cleam it?

    I personally wouldn’t socialize dogs and chickens because one are predators and the other are prey. However, I know a lot of families that do this and accept the risk.

    They're on a birth control implant which stops egg production. I intend to make a dedicated video about it at some point but it's a big topic and will require a lot of work.

    They slept in diapers for years. Lately, I've put puppy pads under their roost (office chair) and let them go diaper free for the night.

    Interesting. The vocal fry was off the charts, so I can’t listen to the entire thing. But I wish I could.
