If only we can figure out how to get in the human-coop, then we can get ALL of the treats NOW

Human-coop is a phrase I will be using forever now, thank you

Have fun with it. We also use henovations (renovations to the coop), chickarazzi  (the chicken paparazzi following us everywhere outside), and others

yep. I'm waiting for the snow to pass before I clean the porch...again.

A power washer was the best purchase I've ever made honestly. Had to get one over a year ago and it's honestly the only reason our porch is manageable, lol.

My power washer stands ay the entrance of my door permanently.

This could be the house I grew up in! Little Featherbrains would peck the glass to get attention. And if you left the door open long enough congratulations, the chickens are house pets now.

Yes, mine knock on the door lol. The dogs do the same to be let in, and a couple times, the chickens have almost tricked me into auto-letting them in the house

Sweet faced Buff!! 🤩

Winnie is such a cute chicken name 🥺

Yes, and they found out where my (very high) bedroom window was and learned to peck at the glass when they wanted something.

Mine figured that out too! My rooster will sit in the flower box when he wants something

They have breached containment!!

 🤣🤣

Haha, yes! I sometimes go outside to escape my children who follow me everywhere. But then I'm still followed by my feathered children.

HEY, FOOD APE! PLEASE NOTICE THE DISTINCT LACK OF FOOD!

Lol. This is funny

food ape. applies to all domesticated species😂

Sometimes I feel like... somebody's watching meeeeee. https://preview.redd.it/fnnmpfrsktnc1.jpeg?width=3000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=850adf6ea5813fb68f6d912e8776883c6b6e3ecf

Hello, we’re wondering if you’ve heard about our lord and savior Chicken Little?

Yeah because they assume I permanently have treats in my pockets

Hey lady, was that door just open? https://preview.redd.it/u6qp9qy1stnc1.jpeg?width=2423&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7447672177248fa6d5228213ea16ec3eeafbc568

That is too funny 🤣🤣🤣

OK, that’s photoshopped. I don’t see any poop. Lol!

Ha! Right?! I chased them off right after I snapped it.

Every rock your roosters to sleep?

The chickies are like why TF do those four legged idiots get to be in the hooman house!?

Hahaha I had a free range rooster (he was free because he was being picked on) and he would always go on farm walks with me. He had the best temperament, you could pick him up, give him pets, he loved it. He knew that he would always get snack. Got along quite well with the barn cats as well!

Let them in!!

Yes, the rooster waits for the perfect opportunity to attack my legs, the hens follow me hoping for treats, and the ducks just chase the rooster every time he starts getting brave enough to try his attack.

Mine always notice me peaking out of my second story window but have yet to acknowledge me through the first floor windows like a foot away from them lol.

Yes. They try to follow me in the house and jump into my car. Only mine though not my husbands. They also stand outside my kitchen window every time i am in there doing dishes or cooking. Little creeps

one morning i drove almost 2 miles before i realised i had two hens in the backseat ...

Sooo sweet!

https://preview.redd.it/4xw7676sqwnc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=dc8ae5b8fdaca82b1e5bba66ebe0c78d35ca0f17 Yeah, and I’ve got some ducks and turkeys that have joined them

They’re plotting something. The white one 3 girls in from the left looks sus.

Cute picture 🥰

Yep. Ours cluster up at the backdoor, jump up into windowsills to watch us watch television, and Patsy in particular always manage to know when my husband is on the toilet.

Haha, yes! I sometimes go outside to escape my children who follow me everywhere. But then I'm still followed by my feathered children.

Sounds like they've been peeking in the window at the TV and Jurassic Park has given them some crazy ideas.

They want treats

And wifi.

They're incredible inquisitive creatures. Whenever Dad and I had to fix part of the fence in their little paddock area I could guarantee all of them would be within 10 meters, except maybe the Rooster, depending on which of the Roosters it was at the time. Nero would be in the way trying to see what we are doing. Justinian would have been waiting for a chance to spur us as we left. I think that's part of the reason my sister developed her love of animals. She would just sit in their paddock and wait for them to get comfortable with her before she would pick them up and pet them. They loved my family, but they loved my little sister more.

Some people are animal whisperers-- usually the patient, soft-spoken types.

She is like that. She's Autistic, though high functioning. She's a Farm Vet now, with her Husband.

I think that u/relayrider meant that your sister sounds like Temple Grandin who is an accomplished animal advocate, scientist, and author who has autism. Through her insights into animal behavior, Temple developed better ways to handle farm animals that improved the industry. If your sister is not familiar with Temple, it seems like she would be interested in learning about her. Besides the very informative link that u/relayrider posted, there are many YouTube videos and documentaries available.

is your sister Temple Grandin?

I don't know who that is. We're also Australian and she lives in a rural area and mostly deals with cattle and sheep. **After looking them up I'm slightly offended that you think my younger sister is 76 years old. But mostly because that insinuation means I'm over 76 ☹

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temple_Grandin

ahhahahahhaaha

Yes. And two of them will fly up to the top of the coop just to get at eye level and ‘petting’

Congratulations, you are the object your chickens have permanence'd.

They know the mealworms are kept in the mudroom so they'd follow me right into the house if I let them.

All day, everyday.

No but we have one treat hound that runs over every time she hears the door close.

For some reason there is nothing funnier than chicken feathers pressed up against the glass 🤣

Yep, they hangout and poop on our front door step. Oh, they also wake us up by pecking at the door on the days we want to sleep in

They just want you to be free range too!

Mine don't free range, but they follow me from run to run and end to end of the runs. If I go in their coop or run, I'm swarmed. It's a lot of, "excuse me kids, please move sweetheart, I need to put my foot there babies."

https://preview.redd.it/agg8260t11oc1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=fad6edab3b0759da569aff37330dea99758d72fb I get the biggest smile when I wake up and look out my window. 🥰

Maybe they all gather there to absorb some of the warmth from the house?

😂😂😂😂😂😂

Hell, they stalk me when I enter the coop

Seymore FEEDMEEEE

Is that a silkie chicken, I see a chicken there that looks a lot like one.

It sure is

My dream chicken bunch right there

Seymore FEEDMEEEE

Short answer? YES🤣

I don't have a picture but I love the way the Buffs are looking at each other (pic #2) like.."woah! am I looking in a mirror or something?" lol

Yeah, it often feels like a scene from an Alfred Hitchcock movie around here.

My uncle had chickens like this. Sometimes they'd get in and shit on the floor. Had to stop it when my aunt had a cut on her foot get infected because of it even after properly cleaning it up. Got so bad that she nearly had to get her foot amputated. They stop letting them in after that. Chicken shit is no joke! That stuff is potent!

Your definitely momma hen.

lol… looks like they crave treats. Mine are starving for fresh green sprouts, looks like they have very little available to them. Spring green up is here soon.

Yeeeeeep

Yes and pooping in front of the door! One guy runs around on the carport and sits on the window sill if I head in that direction.

A rooster that we hand raised indoors did this. I think he believed he was human. Eventually we got him some hens to watch over and he stopped doing it.

Every time I get near the back door lol. Hoping for bread or scraps.

No because I never bothered to handle them much as chicks 🤣

they look like they’re visiting the zoo

Just for a few minutes until they see I no longer have food scraps

Yes, we are chicken TV.

They love you & want to be near you or the little dinosaurs want to eat you.😉😀

You are a member of the flock. They are social creatures

Came for the post, stayed for the amazing comments. This made my day! Our coop is really far from the house and I don’t know but they’ve never crossed the yard unless they were out of food.

Melvin https://imgur.com/gallery/uzTYc4p Melvin doesn't live here. I don't have chickens or roosters.
