Fun Facts About Chickens

 Today I have decided to find out some facts about chickens, Because we just got 4 chickens delivered to our house Saturday.

1. Chickens can distinguish more that 100 faces of there own species. So elephants aren't the only animals with great memory.
2. Chickens Know Who's boss-They form very complex social structures known as "Pecking Orders," And every chicken knows his or her place on the social ladder.
3. Chickens have full Color vision-No Color-Blindness Here
4. Chickens Are Real Sleeping Beauties - They experience Rapid Eye Movement (REM) Sleep, Which means they dream just like we do.
5. Chickens have pain reseptors That give the ability to feel pain and Distress.
6. Hens defend there young from Predators.
7. Chickens Have more than 30 types of vocalizations to distinguish between Threats.
8. Last But not least Baby Chickens Are Adorable.

Here are some photos of our chickens which are about 15 Months old. Our Chickens Are Called Rosco, Karley May, Henry Etta and Cruella. 

Commercial producers get rid of there hens at the end of there first lay at 15-16 months old. In there first year they lay up to 300 eggs. In the second year this drops of by %15. They are re homed after there first lay.

   The Shooting Range

I pull the arrow back towards my chest. My arm tensens as I focus on the target. Suddenly I feel a sharp pain in my back as I scream in terror I turn around to see a bee lying on the ground with its guts all over the place. 

 I get freaked out while accidentally releasing the arrow making it go of track heading for the Range owners pig I quickly pull out my bow and rip another arrow into the atmosphere hooping to hit the death capable arrow out of the sky, I wait in anticipation for the ding of the arrows colliding. 

Finally I here the ting of the metal scraping then I realise that the pig the arrow was heading for is only a cardboard cut out and I didnt need to go through all that silent pain of trying to hit the arrow of track saving the so-called pigs life.

The next day I wake up realise that I have a archery competition in 5 hours, I get dressed then run to get the keys for my car, When I cant find them anywhere I realise that I don't own a car so I call a uber telling him I need to go to the local archery shop to buy a new mechanical bow and a whole bucket full of arrows, after we have been to the archery shop I get him to drop me of at the nearest mall from where the competition is being held.  

After the competition a young man walked up to me and said “you are good at archery, but I know someone that is better than you, he lives in that farm over in the distance” “Impossible I’m the best in the country, if you want me to believe you then you will need to prove it to me” so the young man and the archer went walking over to the farm when they got there they walked round till they saw the barn with about one hundred archery targets circles within circles every target had a arrow stuck exactly in the middle of the bulls-eye. Jeffrey came out to say hello, The archer asked “I can hit the bulls-eye every shot but you don't only hit the bulls-eye you hit the exact centre of the bulls-eye how do you do that” “you have your ways and I have mine you see I shoot the arrow then I paint the target.
