Did You Know Chickens Worry About The Future? | |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 69300887 United States 06/17/2015 11:26 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I've always loved chickens but now I don't think I could ever eat one again. Quoting: Rev Woo-Woo "Chickens don't just live in the present, but can anticipate the future and demonstrate self-control, something previously attributed only to humans and other primates, according to a recent study." [link to www.abc.net.au] This one really got me... Chickens talk to their unborn babies. In a natural setting, a mother hen will cluck to her chicks before they have even hatched and they will churp back to her and to each other through their shells Read more: [link to www.care2.com] [link to www.youtube.com (secure)] :pinkpeep: with all the shit happening in the world you post this drivel? Makes me want to wish away all humans. We're fucked if you represent 0.000000001 of the human population. |

The kids in New York always used to say that little bit of white you always see when you crack open an egg was rooster cum. I didn't eat eggs for a whole year until a farmer told me commercial eggs are unfertilized. |

Inside the shell between the fluid and the shell is a skin or sac that allows air to pass through but holds moisture in Amazing Yes, it is. nature has some pretty amazing designs. Have you ever smelled rotten eggs? You can smell them even before they're cracked open. If they weren't permeable they'd explode when they rotted. If you rub some oil on them or dip them in wax, an egg will last a year and stay fresh. It will taste a little off, but not too bad. |

Sir LurksAlot User ID: 65118735 United States 06/18/2015 12:16 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | My chickens will come hang out with me when I am working in the Yard. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 69520942 My chickens come in the house to get me so I can go dig up worms for them. They do this from spring until fall! They also have a hierarchy of likes. Slugs reign supreme over worms and worms reign supreme over dried mealworm and dried mealworm is acceptable when there isn't anymore worms or slugs. They are most certainly forward thinkers....ALL animals are conscious, sentient beings. Just because scientists haven't figured it out yet, does not mean it isn't so. Anyone that cares for animals in a loving and humane manner definitely knows that animals are incredibly conscious and emotional. All of them! yes!!! This is all a joke!! |

When I think of something like this the very first thing I do is try to find out the answer. I'm kind of obsessed that way. I knew the air through the shell thing when I was five or six but still thought a hen had to be knocked up to lay an egg until I was 12 or so. |

Anus the Heinous User ID: 6464549 United States 06/18/2015 01:10 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I have a mobile chicken house with attached cage. The house and cage have several hatches that I can open, and close, and depending on the location of the house/pen will determine which hatch I expect them to use when entering or exiting. The Chickens get to "free-range" in the yard when I am outside. What is interesting is when I move the House/cage to a different location and choose a different hatch for them to use to get in. They are not too quick at problem or puzzle solving, and its funny to watch then get pissed when the are trying to figure out how to get back into their pen. They will march back and forth having a little chicken tantrum until they finally figure out the new path? Just like people I guess? Heinous Anus... Where Blather Meets Godzilla!

They know if they stick around me long enough, the fresh feed with the goodies will come. And they do talk to their chicks in the shell. And I've heard the chicks peeping inside of the shell a day or two prior to hatch. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 69539403 Greece 06/18/2015 03:38 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | oh yes they do! chickens do not have a neo cortex and thus are incapable of thinking about the future.. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 26189457 please stop confusing thinking about the future with programmed situational responses. So you're saying that every possible even they might encounter is pre-programmed into their little chicken brains? If you keep poultry, you'll find they do appear to reason out situations and are far more intelligent than, say, turkeys, who are, basically, thick as two planks. Your point re the neo-cortex is noted, but do we really know everything about brain function in all species? It's not long ago scientists were emphatic that dogs couldn't see in colour and that cattle don't have a fear response. If you still believe that last one, just visit the holding pens at your local abbatoir. |
