    My hens would have freaked out if I tried to hold them upright with their feet smashed like that. There should be a whole lot of toe in a small area held by one hand to get it around his body

      Yeah, that would be a pretty shitty thing to do to any bird. All of my roosters were assholes who would have torn my shit up if I tried that. Even my silkies.

        Sadly it made me think of a dead chicken. If a dog killed one, they’d usually leave it there and you’d find it stiff. I’d pick it up by the ankles like that to move it… Never a good feeling
