I like how many kinds of leftovers can be given to chickens. The only limitation is that they have to get curious enough to peck at it. They'll ignore some delicious shit on their regular food plate if it's the "wrong" shape and color.
We had only hens, and the older one who was easing off laying started getting roosterish, the first time she charged me with wings spread and pecked my foot for picking up one of the other birds I was very confused.
I'm on around #30 in my life, both ends of the spectrum across that time. Currently have 3, they are all hybrids with silkies and are all doscile. Last batch were barred rock absolute assholes that would go out of their way for a confrontation.
Got attacked by herding dogs a couple weeks ago. I can confirm they're not as smart as they seem. They left their herd and ran a solid 100m to the road I was walking to stand in front of me and bark. Spoiler alert: I am not a wolf
It's nothing but an existential hatred of existence. Damn things are suicidal. There was always a few that managed to kill themselves every year on the ranch.
While in English usually sheep or sheeple is meant as an insult saying you don't think on your own and just follow programming, in Estonian it's just a playful way to call someone a dumbass. It's something you might say to your significant other or good friend after they make a stupid ass-joke (reverse ass-hyphen xkcd time)
I've not owned a farm, but I grew around county fairs and often visited and helped out at horse stables or local / friend's farms or ranches or what not.
The only change I could possibly suggest is that somehow a horse needs to be 'big chaotic stupid', but i know that breaks the system, but goddamnit horses are fucking stupid.
"What I remember is the goose giving me the evil eye and then the goose wrapping its wings around my head, and I can't see and I hear myself screaming," she said.
Surman spent five days in hospital after suffering a concussion, fractured cheekbone, face lacerations including a scar under her eyebrow and loose teeth.
She credits wearing a bike helmet and sunglasses with preventing more serious injuries.
I have sheep, goats, pigs,ducks, chickens, a couple llamas, dogs, cats and a couple Hereford cows. The cows have been very easy going/playful in the time I've had them.
Knew a guy who had a bunch of limousines, but it was a bull herd. He said the bigger ones would damn near rape the smaller ones to death. Or maybe they actually accomplished it, it's been a while and I don't remember.

Chaotic Bastard is exactly right. Everyone thinks its geese or swans, and although they are truly bastards, roosters are raving rage filled lunatics.

Fucking hate them and chickens tbh. Eggs are just too good.

Ducks have a marginally better attitude and personality, and their eggs are much better, IMHO

I disagree, but my dad always raves about how great ducks are. Resilient, resistant to disease, eat everything including garden pests...

We had a funny one. He was a bastard as well, but he was not too bad and could be hand fed without attacking. He and the geese had a truce though.

Don't kill yourself. Kill one of the wolves inside you. Then you still have one wolf

Once you're down to a single wolf inside you, you'll find it easier to cross the river inside you with the cabbage and goat that are also inside you.

hansolo@lemmy.today · 16 pts · 114d
My family has a few... They're good at some things, but can be dumb as a box of hair at other things. They're the perfect entry for lawful stupid.
Also, that's a dog breed. Dogs don't have races, other than greyhounds at the track.

Seems about right, though I'd note that if you have geese, the rooster doesn't even begin to compare for chaotic bastard.

Geese can't cause you bodily harm. Roosters will straight up kill you.

My ass and legs disagree after a gander latched on to my ass and beat me with his wings when I was a kid on the ranch.
Next time he came at me, I had a baseball bat. Roasted gander for dinner.

There's a place for an Africa version of this.
Chaotic big would be hippos. Lawful big eles. Neutral big giraffes. All 3 will straight up murder you, but only the hippo will do it for fun.
