tbh???? chickens are the best pets??

they

• wag their tails (yes!!! like dogs!!!! they do it when they are exited or happy)
• love eating treats and love whenever you pretend to peck things
• get very attached to certain ppl, will think ur their mom
• run around like dinosaurs??????? i don’t know if this is just my chickens but they are very dramatic when they run??
• make VERY weird noises,,, like honking, purring, clucking, and peeping (soft peeping, they still think they are baby chicks)
• will give you lots of pretty feathers 
• eat bugs
• you can pet them, v soft
• like a tiny pet dinosaur

@noivern

additions:

• if u raise them from small (or sometimes just anyway) you are Forever Mum and they will jump up on ur back and go to sleep
• and preen you, rearrange your clothes and hair sometimes
• dont like dealing with spiders in house? go outside. pick up chicken. hold chicken in vicinity of spider. spider vacuumed up in about 0.3 seconds.
• make amusing Warning Noise when a Bad Bird goes overhead. sometimes this is something sensible like a raptor. sometimes it is a startling blackbird, or maybe nothing (maybe chickens can see extradimensional birds? unsure)
• when chicken mama has babby chicken and they get in her feathers and poke their heads out
• rooster is Very Protective but also thinks that maybe anything that peeps is Potential Flock Babies. has been known to bring food for goslings and ducklings
• actually roosters in general are very cute. find food and go beep beep beep so ladies can find it. if you give him a nice treat he wont eat it and will go find a lady to give it to.

ive been blessed

the rooster thing is 100% legit. Like, they wont eat any treats, they call the females over and are like !!! and the hens are like !!! and eat it up
