That's pretty cool that the rooster saves the food for the hens. Classy. Give him a pat from me. What are punishment hugs? I haven't found chickens to be smart enough for punishment, personally.

He actually likes hugs, just not in front of his ladies. Must be too emasculating for him. 😆
Not all chicken breeds and not all chickens are smart. The flock queen is dumb as they come. Yet I've trained the rooster not to crow in the day, so he rarely crows once he's out for the day and knows very well he's in trouble when he does. The rooster is Cutie's grandfather, so I suspect she got her intelligence from him. It certainly wasn't from her grandmother!
