Chickens Enjoying Freedom Outside - Nature 116

 When we saw several chickens in one morning, we thought they are loose. But, another morning we saw them again.

We think are not loose. They are taking a stroll and enjoying freedom. The owners may let them out early in the morning as that is when we usually see the chickens again and again.

They give us a little chuckle as they go about the morning duties. I've only seen them in the mornings though, so I think they are possibly let out at that time. They play around and find some natural foods.

Wild chickens may consume variety of foods, including insects, plants and fruits. They may consume ants, termites, flies, grasshoppers and worms.

We believe that it is good to allow chickens are roaming outside. It is good fot their health, since their immune system will be stronger.

Chickens could stimulate their mood or well being, since they get fresh air and sunshine regularly.

Our neighborhood has Cayotes roaming, especially at night. We hope that Cayotes don't attack and kill the chickens.

Have you seen some chicken roaming in your neighborhood?

  2. It's actually good for them. At least they are properly treated.

  3. Es bueno que las gallinas estén libres, en donde yo vivo andan sueltas, hay que tener cuidado que no venga el zorro y te las lleve.
    Feliz día.
    Saludos.

  6. These chickens seem to enjoy their morning strolls! They're likely back in their coop safe and sound before the coyotes come out. That butterfly picture is stunning, by the way!

  11. I live in a big city so it's impossible to see the chickens walking on the streets but I meet a lot of them when I run through the country. As I wrote last time I remember again the chickens in my yard when I was a kid.

  17. Chickens deserve freedom, not confinement in cages.
    But I do hope they are safe from the coyotes.

    Happy Friday!

  18. I must smile about the chickens.

    I'm very late commenting today... I'm amazed at how quickly the days fly by again in the new year.

    Your post is a feast for the eyes in many ways. A very welcome change when I look out of the window here at how rainy and dreary it is here. Well... it's January, it's winter time. It's supposed to get really cold in the next few days (-10 C°) and it's supposed to snow. Thank you for your contribution to

    Once again, best wishes for a healthy, happy new year 2024,
