chocchick Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 (edited) Hmm my hairband dropped out this morning and I forgot until I saw Katy trying to eat it. The last thing I saw of it, it was in a tube shape and in her beak. I've looked on the ground, but it is brown against brown. The first thing she did was chew on my similar brown shoelace when I went to look for it. Do you think she'll be OK, IF she's eaten it? It's thick plain elastic.

Nicola H Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 Oh no what a silly chook, I am sure it will come out the other end fairly soon, just keep an eye out for strange looking poos. My is always eating things she shouldn't she ate a piece from a blue plastic peg a few weeks ago and it passed through pretty quick. I hope katy is OK just hope it doesn't get stuck in her crop but I am sure she will be fine...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chocchick Posted March 26, 2007 Author Share Posted March 26, 2007 Oh no what a silly chook I think it looked like a brown circular worm Fingers crossed it won't get stuck (or turns up in the garden). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laura & CTB Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 Before I realised they were chomping at the window frames mine used to eat huge wadges of silicone, it always re-appeared eventually. (also got all the jokes about bouncing eggs) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 I had a whitestar that ate an inflated water balloon once, that the neighbours children had thrown over - it appeared out the other end after a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chocchick Posted April 13, 2007 Author Share Posted April 13, 2007 Well still none the wiser as to where my hair band is, but Katy's still running about which is a good sign. Unfortunately she's developed a taste for hairbands and had to wrestle one off her after chasing her in circles round the garden, with the other chickens (who wanted the "worm"). She had it locked in her beak and it just kept stretching it as I pulled on it. Eventually I got it and she shook her feathers and went off in a sulk.
