We’ve said it once and we’ll say it again, chickens should not be kept in the house or you will have a greatly increased risk of Salmonella. That being said, this little guy acts just like a house hold pet.

Allen believes Pudder Dudder is more like a dog than a chicken. Pudder doesn’t care much for hanging out with the other chickens in the coop across the yard. Instead she stays inside, hanging out with Allen, and hoping to snag a piece of cheese from the refrigerator. “She has been camping, fishing,” Allen said. “She’s been on a motorcycle too. She loves driving in the truck; she looks out the window.” Pudder can be helpful to the family, too. When Allen’s husband brought home a few fertilized eggs, Pudder sat on them for 30 days until she hatched three little chicks. The fluffy chicken follows her mama throughout the house, pecking on the door so that Allen will let her in.
