craftyhunnypie Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 Can anyone tell me if they have ever left the radio on for their chickens? My hubby has been in his workshop shed today with the radio on & door open - the result..... quiet, content, well behaved, listening chickens!!!! It's like they enjoy the music / company & are in some sort of trance. We've not tried classic FM yet, but they seem to like Radio 2 & our local station....easy listening & pop! They are really into Enrique Iglesias ' ping pong song' at the moment, they inform me it's the right beat for strutting! Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xScrunchee Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 Aaah bless 'em. I won't be taking the radio out into the garden now to see if my girls like music though!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mel (& Paul) Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 Our first lot of girls came two years ago during Wimbledon and they got very used to listening to the tennis on the radio I do think that some good classical music or easy listening music wont do any harm. Our dogs are rather partial to Radio 2 - especially Ask Elvis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theherd123 Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 Our dogs are rather partial to Radio 2 - especially Ask Elvis Yes our dogs like the radio too but they prefer Radio 1 as they are very 'down with the kids' and like listening to Scot Mills in the afternoon As for the chooks they love the birdie song!

chelsea Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 Some of us were discussing this the other day My girls love to be sung and spoken too and we have regular chats! My dog is 8 years old and we either leave the tv on (if its dark) or by day she has radio 2 on (starting with Sarah Kennedy) when I go to work. I think it helps with the boredom If we are out in the garden we place the radio so we can here it and im sure the girls love it too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
