Joojoo Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 Has anyone tried this? http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/A583337 As to whether they are hypnotised or just very relaxed I'm not sure I saw something similar on a programme last night and it just seemed weird.

chocchick Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 I'm not sure they would let me put their head under their wing or hold their beak without a fuss I'd love to know the secret. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joojoo Posted September 1, 2008 Author Share Posted September 1, 2008 I don't think mine would either . The one on tv last night didn't seem to be under any stress but I'm still very sceptical about how they managed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SarahJo Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 I posted last year on hypnotism for hens. It was done on the CBBC channel. Basically - get a piece of white chalk, and show to hen, then slowly draw a white line away from the bird on say tarmac/black paper. The hen is then trtansfixed by the white line until you click your fingers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rachel19 Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 Hahaha yeah I remember that from last year i think - i believe holiding them upside down also works............or is that some other animal? I used to makemine go into a trance by putting my finger on the end of their beaks. They just used to go very quiet and still - although if I was unlucky they'd bite my finger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
