🐔 Fun Facts About Chickens! 🐣
You might think you know your backyard flock — but these feathered friends are full of surprises!
• 🧏‍♀️ Chickens have ears! They’re just covered by tiny feathers — and the color of their earlobes can even predict the color of their eggs (white lobes = white eggs, red lobes = brown eggs).
• 💡 They feel pain and emotions. Chickens have complex nervous systems and can experience empathy, stress, and comfort — so keeping them happy truly matters.
• 👀 They recognize faces. Chickens can remember up to 100 faces — both human and animal!
• 🥚 They talk to their chicks before they hatch. Mother hens softly cluck to their eggs, and the chicks chirp back!
• 🐾 They dream when they sleep. Chickens experience REM sleep, just like we do.

Taking care of your flock starts with knowing them better — and we’ve got everything you need here at Tuscaloosa Farmers Co-op to keep your hens healthy, happy, and laying strong!
