Undertoad Friday Feb 3 11:47 AM2/3/2006: Uncooperative hen
xoB finds this very appealing item at weather underground.
You know if you've had or seen a herding dog, that they will herd just about anything. Sounds like one owner has put this to use, herding free-range hens into their coop at night. But there's a problem with one particular bird. The caption explains:
She just rolls over and plays dead. Ruby tries to nudge her to move but she won't budge. I usually have to go pick up the hen now and put her away.
The hen is not hurt in any way Phew!

My sister had a bunch of those little barred rock banties. There were three roosters - I hated those little bastards! They were mean, but being banties they were tiny so they were easy to kick.
Bring it on PETA....

xoxoxoBruce Friday Feb 3 04:22 PMEver wonder how a hen lays an egg?
dar512 Friday Feb 3 05:49 PMPersonally, I think the hen wants to be part of the dog's pack and is showing subservience.

What? You knew it came out of the chicken, right? You act like it was a child birth or something. No blood, no crap, Kinda amazing really.
capnhowdy Wednesday Feb 8 05:55 PMI've heard of homosapiens having sex with hens.
Brubbitt.
Sun_Sparkz Wednesday Feb 8 06:39 PMI thought it was very interesting. the horozontal slit made me a little queezy but i read it all and thought "wow, glad i read that".
Amazing that the wild poultry would be extinct without us, or so they said. and i feel a lot better knowing that the egg never touches the poo poo! Yay for the cloaca!!!
richlevy Wednesday Feb 8 08:40 PMWow. Imagine giving birth every day. No wonder hens always seem pissed.
