Taming a chicken seems hard at first, you'll find it even scary, but after taming most of my Mama's chicken, I say it is all just about making friends with a pet. Let them feel that you mean no harm to them and that you just want to be friends, call them often by their given names and babysit them. Easy right? They are easy to trust as long as you won't break that trust. It's just like making friends with a cat and dog, you have to be careful with them too. ＼(^o^)／
Last month I shared about Kulas, the new chick of Mama who's a month old back them and Maria's baby. He is a little bigger now, guys, and he still loves to be carried and petted. Well, most of Mama's chickens actually love that. Except for one, I failed taming that one because I couldn't make friends with him when he's still a baby chick. I think I got busy on something and was so hooked on my phone that I don't go outside that often. I think it's on Manhwa or something, or in a new anime?
Anyhow, I also share in that post how I'm planning to tame the new baby chick we have. It's just one baby chick, and actually I successfully tamed her, but the sad news is, she died! ಥ‿ಥ. Even though they are well taken care of, despite that, she still died. It's really sad, you know, just when we're already close, just when I can already carry her and caress her beautiful feathers (｡ŏ﹏ŏ). I hope she's resting now in a birds paradise, if they have that, I hope they have it (｡ŏ﹏ŏ).
By the way, Mama's chicken has one thing in common, which is that they love to pet. And I feel like being carried while caressing their feathers is like a luxury to them. They are comfortable with it, they love it. When we do that to them while also talking to them, it's like a lullaby. They'll start to wink their eyes until they finally close it.
This is Moymoy, and she loves being carried. When I carry her, I do it like I'm hugging her. Look at that cutie patootie, haha. Watching her slowly close her eyes makes me feel satisfied. I do this to even the adult, with Nonoy and Maria. And they so love it. They love it when I massage their head, their chin, and their whole body. And with their warm bodies, it's like you are hugging a squishy dog and cat while doing it. Wahhhh, seriously, I never imagined myself liking chickens this much, lol. I love it! ┏(＾0＾)┛
Here, let me share more of Moymoy's photos. She's just adorable, I can't help taking more. Oh, let me also share how much she gains weight. It's been a month since I last carried her, so it surprised me when I noticed that she gained more weight now.
And I think I know the reason why she gained more weight - because of the special treats she gets from Mama, lol. She feeds them termites, the ones you see in old wood, just like what you can see in the photo. And according to Google, they are a good source of protein for them. So it's safe to feed them this. It's not safe, I think if you spray pesticide on it, then fee it to them. Of course no one does that. Right ƪ(˘⌣˘)ʃ.
