as to the chickens, they are always hungry, starving, absolutely must have treats every time a person enters the yard or they will expire!!!!!!!! don't let them fool you they are masters of manipulation just like baby tilapia in an aquarium that can always trick some poor unsuspecting sole into feeding them even when they are stuffed.

I have to keep the other half from being tricked by the ones I have in the aquarium cause the bio-filter on that set up is not up to extra feedings!!!!
