Cat Collar Trackers

[Guest]

I was just wondering whether anyone else has experienced this before...

 

I have just noticed some of my hens are occasionally regurgitating a kind of clear syrup from their beaks!

 

They are then eating the liquid...

 

All my hens seem healthy and they have certainly not gone off their food and water!

 

It was just a bit of a shock when I first noticed it...

If mine have been very thirsty e.g. their 1st drink of the day, I've seen them drink then when they bend down to peck the ground some of the clear water come back up. I think the water just hasn't had time to 'go down'.

Ah, good point... I didn't think of that!

 

Now that you mention it, it does hapen just after they have a drink and go to peck something else up off the ground...

Ours do that When they drink, then bend down to peck at something to quickly, it comes back and then they eat it. They actually look rather embarrased so they try and eat it to hide the evidence
