A friend, new to her own flock, called recently to see if I put a pan of water out for my hens to hop into and flap around like birdies do in a birdbath.
It's been awhile since I've thought of the phrase "madder than a wet hen," but that certainly sums up what these gals think of taking a dip to cool off or get clean.

Fun post. I don't know. You should see my puppy wet. She gets pretty mad, too.
ReplyDeleteThanks for checking in, Gabby. Give my chicken's sympathy to your pup. Poor thing. You know she'd love, love, love to go roll in the dirt when she coat is wet--or any other time for that matter!
