elpolloloco! Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 hi i just wondered how good chickens hearing is! cos they always seem to be pretty alert to surrounding noises, and i know that dogs have like 10000 times more sensitive hearing than humans or something , and i just wondered how my mighty hens lived up to their animal competition! i just liked to know tap back!

mrs chook Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 I'm not sure, but mine certainly know when 'mum's' home! No matter how quietly I open the back door, there they are peering thru the gate and calling. I know others have this too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ruth1 Posted September 24, 2008 Share Posted September 24, 2008 Funny my Oh says they know my car and start making chooky noises when they hear it, I always hear them talking to me as i walk up the garden even though I cant see them for the bushes around the run. Thankfully they are all reasonably quiet chooks at other times Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
