curious chickens

I’ve been living around chickens for a while. And they’re quite curious. One of these days, I’m actually gonna get a chair and go in the pen and take pictures of them with without the wire, but I’m a little nervous. They aren’t mine, but I’m allowed to go in there. I just don’t know if they’re gonna peck my pants or jump on my lap or if their poop that might get on the bottom of my shoes would be hazardous to my cat…

Indeed, chickens are curious creatures. The wire defines the enclosure.

Fun shot!

I love how you got all the eyes in focus, a fun capture through the fence. You should go in and give it a try, your cat ill forgive you ;-)

Nice image and detail.

Well-done. Interesting. And I don't mind the wire, somehow.

@briaan @jamibann @darchibald @robertallanbear Thanks all. I don’t mind the wire either and it adds interest. My cat WILL forgive me. He will be investigating the smell of their scent on my clothes.

I love chickens. Good luck going to the other side of the fence. It is hard to get good focus on their eyes through the fence, isn’t it?

I have been pecked on the face once. while taking photos, so it is wise behind the wire.

@jgpittenger @ggshearron @yaorenliu Thanks! Yuck re: being pecked in the face. At least I wear glasses so my eyes are safe.Yes, it is hard getting their eyes through the fence. I went I there recently but didn’t sit down. I’m looking forward to doing it.

It's a cute shot. I wouldn't want to be too close either. But if they let them out sometime. There are loose chickens running around at two of my neighbor's
