sandyhas3chucks Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 i read somewhere about a house trained chicken I think was readers digest? so 1 hour no pooh? how about taking them back out with some sort of pooh command as you would a dog(appaently you can clicker train chickens!) then back in. you could have the 1st house trained flock! Mine just "do it" although mornings are def the busiest pooh times! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chelsea Posted February 2, 2009 Author Share Posted February 2, 2009 Came home from work astonished She has demolished a whole corn on the cob , half a honey seed bar, and 2 "Nice" biscuits (wouldnt normally feed these but we found its the only thing she would eat yesterday) Tail is up and being wagged, red comb and she is everywhere in my kitchen! I cannot believe the change. I dont think the vet will either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moomin Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 I'm so pleased for you Chelsea, must be a load off your mind Bless her hope she carries on making good progress Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelsea Posted February 2, 2009 Author Share Posted February 2, 2009 Once again thanks so much for your lovely wishes, they really mean a lot . I was so worried about going to work today and leaving her and could not believe my eyes when I got in and she was going bonkers over a corn on the cob. I think she's going to be very hard to get out of the kitchen, she seems to have settled in very well, doesnt even bat an eye lid at the dishwasher/microwave and dog running in and out She might be in with us for some time though, vet said the stitches have to stay in 6 weeks.

Hospital wing (she's made her bed all messy!) honestly...this is just after I'd hoovered chaos at visiting hour Ella's disgusted her visitors ate all her food where's Matron?!

Guest Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 the floor is lovely Chelsea, slate is lovely too (we have slate coloured tiles on our kitchen floor) but yours are a very warm shade. I wouldn't upgrade if I were you unless they're chipped/damaged! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
