Ppl dont realize, but its hard raising chickens. You have to keep guard of them as there are many predators. Im glad shes in a sanctuary and safe.

[@mysterykit6893]

I mena it aint hard if you have a great rooster with them xD But yea i do get the point ive raised many chicks without hens or roosters to feed/protect them and have a house full of cats. While most of the cats doesn't care about them my brothers cat was however a real hunter. Luckily the chicks grew up fast and strong so the cat stayed away fromthem once i released them in the coop ^^

[@JustMe-vk4fn]

Oh, my gosh - you're *so* right. The neighbors behind us keep six chickens. We see two or three different kinds of hawks keeping an eye on their place all the time. We feed birds and squirrels on our side and when the birds get real *quiet* real fast, we look "up" to see if another hawk is checking out the chickens. :)

Most of that is normal chicken behavior. They all have their own personalities and they can be rather silly at times, but I think most people underestimate how smart and bold they can be. The movie Chicken Run is accurate to how chickens behave (other than the building stuff and complex planning part). They can recognize their names and you could train them to some extent, but they will still poke their beaks into places you may not want them to.

[@kinoko6096]

Yep! My chickens come when called and recognize my mom and I. One of my flock always has to perch on my leg whenever I sit down in their run.

I had a Brown Laying Hen as a pet a few years ago. Her owners left the hen and rooster to fend for them selves in the winter. It was-40 C and I wanted to check on them. Snow was about knee deep and I borrowed a snowmobile to go where they were. I got to a clearing where a beat up old holiday trailer was. Everything was snow covered and in the middle of pile of junk, a tarp was spread out. I lifted the tarp and 'Millie' flew right at me. It scared me for a moment . She landed on my arm and it easy to tell that she was distressed. I checked for the rooster and found that he was dead and more than likely , froze to death. I found a cardboard box and put Millie inside and then tied the box onto the snowmobile seat. Before I left, I wanted to see if there was chicken feed around. I looked in the trailer and I could see there was a full bag but the door was locked. I didnt care about the trailer or the people who owned it. All I knew was that there was a animal in distress and she needed help. I took great pleasure in kicking that door in. Millie stayed with me for 3 years. She was a constant joy for those 3 years and I am not ashamed to say I cried when she died. I still miss you Millie...

[@lindaaspromonte1514]

My dad and his family always kept a few chickens when he was growing up. One hand seemed particularly attached to my dad and would often jump up on his shoulder and ride around with him. My father was very bright and finished high school at age 16. As soon as he turned 17 his mother signed papers so that he could enter the service. When he came home on his first leave that chicken went crazy! She almost lost her mind running after my dad insisting on being on his shoulder or being carried . She even wanted to follow him into the house but that was a no no. My dad was not even the one who fed the chickens but this hen was so attached to him you can be sure chickens know one human from another and have varying degrees of feelings for them.

@@lordlossize good point. And that's the thing. I am not against eating meat, I am against the way we do it. We are not cheetahs in the wild. Yes, that is a brutal way to go. But that's nature. But we have the option of doing it humanely. But don't. For monetary gain. And it won't change. And I know that. But it still doesn't take away the fact that we are hurting creatures who have just as much right as we do to live.
