that too,, but it was the one time the broom handle took the dinner out, ill never forget that.. so much has changed around here since I was a child its really crazy.. I cant walk down the alley without feeling some sort of way..

 

in two guns with densil and walburg they shoot the chickens heads that are buried in the ground... i thinks, if i can remember correctly...

 

Our understanding is that they stop laying, at least in part, because the length of daylight changes in the winter. We put a heat lamp in the coop and run it on a timer to simulate the longer days....the chickens pretty much kept laying as usual throughout the winter.

Now we are down to one chicken. It's older and my wife wants me to kill it because she thinks it will have a hard winter by itself with no other birds to huddle with. I may have to do it but I think it's slightly unfair that she was all gung-ho to start keeping chickens....I wanted nothing to do with it. She bought the birds....I had to build the coop. Bird needs to be assassinated....I'm the one who has to do it. I'm not sure of the most humane way to do it. She says I should shoot it.

Edit to say...chickens lay eggs...she cooks them for me to eat so.....I suppose.

 

Give the chicken to someone else.

 

It's not so easy. I have friends with chickens and they would take it but if you just toss in a new hen, it will probably get the hell beat out of it by the others. Kind of a pack mentality. We've had to keep new birds separated until they were almost full grown in the past.

 

Then you get to blame the assassination on someone else...

 

Give it to your daughter. She wants a pet.

 

Tell her it's a tortoise... Or a dog. She'll never know.

 

We've kind of been there, done that. She was stoked about the chickens for a bit but lost interest. Same thing when she had fish. Same as when she had hamsters. That's why she isn't getting a cat...that and cat hair. She can have the tortoise.....specifically and only a Galapogos Tortoise.
