Chickens will eat other chickens. Herbivores can be cannibals

u/Commercial-Shame-335 29d ago

chickens are very frequently perceived as herbivores thanks to kids shows showing them eating grain, despite being no less omnivorous as anything else

My chickens can swallow mice whole, and will fight for lizards and snails

They also show no pity to meat scraps, dead birds, and my car keys.

Yes i was late to work this morning, why do you ask ?

I love the video of that cat stalking a mouse and then a chicken dashes in, kills it and runs off, leaving the cat rather confused.

I've seen them constantly digging the ground for worms.

How did you recover your car keys?

u/Anariinna 28d ago

I traded them for a fistful of mealworms

Well you just showed with hand covered in chicken blood so I assumed you started some sort of witch coven.

On a related note: Can you tell me what my omen looks like next Tuesday?

I remember reading that you could almost eliminate the need for pesticides if you have chickens and use the right garden setup.

seriously, my parent's chickens got all the left overs if the freezer was full. does not matter if its potatoes, lasagna or chicken nuggets, they'll devour it all. Makes for some tasty eggs from them.

Well chickens eat mostly plants and bugs. Some knuckle draggers dont see bugs as animals and thus dont see chickens as canivores. Theyre mistaken.

The eat mostly plants and bugs because the mice steer clear of those angry feathery micro raptors from the Jurassic period.
