    People who grew up in the countryside know that after the hen lays eggs, wait for her to go out to pick up the eggs, but be careful when picking up the eggs, do not eat all the eggs at once, and leave one or two eggs in the nest, called nest eggs. If you eat all the eggs at once, the hen may learn to be smart enough to lay eggs in the wild.

    Generally speaking, if a hen sees you taking an egg from the nest, it will choose to peck you with its beak, while most hens will actually take care of their eggs, but if we go to the side to get the eggs and avoid the hen's sight, then in most cases, even if the hen sees the eggs, they will not think that we have taken them from the nest. In fact, if the hen's eggs are indeed taken from the front, then the phenomenon of the hen pecking at itself does occur, and for us, after taking someone else's egg, the hen does make certain decisions after seeing them. reactions, which are also extremely common, but we don't know whether or not to be angry.

    When the hen feels that she has laid enough eggs, the incubation mode opens. At this time, it is already very difficult to retrieve eggs in front of them, because at this time it also begins to protect the eggs it lays, and it will attack people. So when people take the eggs away, the chickens will also get angry, but it depends on the situation.

    If you take it away during the incubation period, it will definitely get angry and even bite you with its sharp beak. If it hasn't laid enough eggs and hasn't hatched yet, take it away while it's not looking. It can be said that most chickens do not have the awareness to protect their eggs when they first start laying eggs.

    It is only when a certain number of eggs need to be hatched that they put energy on the eggs. There will be a time when chickens are reluctant to lay eggs and want to hatch eggs with all their minds. At this time, if you dare to take its eggs in person, you will be met with fierce resistance.

    It is egg-aware compared to all other egg-laying poultry or birds, but has a slower reflex arc. And you always need to check the number. Knowing this, you can go to pick up the eggs in different time periods.

    Because the chicken doesn't know what we're doing with the eggs, and it knows that it can't fight humans, it has given up resisting.

    The chicken only pays attention to the number of eggs hatched and does not check the number of eggs produced, which leads to it being taken away and it does not know.

    Mainly because the hens don't know how to count, they don't know how many eggs they lay.

    The chicken must be angry when the egg is taken away, but the way the hen gets angry is by not laying the egg anymore.

    In the past, when I went to the chicken coop to get eggs, I took them secretly while the hen was not there, and I didn't finish them all at once, just to prevent the hen from getting angry and affecting the eggs.

    First of all, we have to understand a common sense, that is, the eggs laid by chickens may not all hatch chicks, only fertilized eggs can hatch chicks. The eggs we usually eat are composed of egg shells, egg whites and egg yolks, and we need to popularize science, this egg yolk is called egg yolk before the egg is laid, that is, when it is still in the hen's body, the egg yolk is formed by the eggs of chickens. That is to say, if the egg is fertilized before it is excreted from the body, the fertilized egg is the yolk, and the egg white and shell only provide a place for the chicken to develop and nutrients**.

    Article**2 Those eggs that have not been fertilized, the yolks and eggs formed cannot hatch chicks. Another strange phenomenon is that the hen does not hatch chicks every time she lays an egg, if there is no human or other animals in the outside world, such as weasels, take the eggs out of the nest, when the hen lays a certain amount of eggs, usually 7-10, or more, the hen will hatch the eggs. It is precisely because the eggs laid by the chickens are taken away every day that the hens continue to lay eggs day after day.

    For a hen who is not hatching chicks, it seems inconsequential to her that you take the eggs, so he is not angry. Article **3 Of course, the above are all free-range chickens at home. As for the chickens on the farm, their mission is to lay eggs, and they are kept in chicken cages, and they eat and lay eggs all day long.

    The eggs laid are taken away by the keepers every day, and this kind of caged chickens have lost their wildness, as if they have become accustomed to such "work", let alone angry.

    The reason why chickens don't get angry when they see eggs taken away is because they are not purely wild, they are domesticated chickens or offspring, and their instinct to protect eggs has deteriorated, and it can even be said that they are used to living without hatching eggs.

    First of all, when people go to get hen eggs, they don't take them in a bright way, they usually go to get them secretly. We all know that hens have a lot of eggs in their nests, and of course, as mothers, they also love their eggs very much. At this time, if you want to get the eggs, of course, you can't clash with the hens head-on, they will definitely try their best to protect their children, and you will be pecked by it a few times.

    So people "steal" eggs when the hen is not at the nest. In this way, the hen came back and saw that her eggs were missing, and she could only blame herself for not taking good care of her children.

    Secondly, hens are counted, and they generally remember how many eggs they lay in a single litter. But because people are always stealing eggs, their babies can't be saved. When the hen finds that all her babies are gone, she sulks and continues to work hard to lay eggs and make up for her lost eggs.

    Such an industrious hen that lays eggs is simply admirable.

    Finally, never take the eggs in front of the hens, you will definitely regret it. Mother's love is universal in both humans and animals, and the same is true for hens. Don't look at the eggs they lay so many, but they take great care of each one.

    Anyone who steals eggs in front of a hen has seen how fierce the hen was at that time. It's like someone else stealing your baby, when you go straight to get the eggs, the hen will jump up and chase you away, and it is possible to pounce and peck at your hand. Don't underestimate a mother's fighting prowess when it comes to protecting her cubs.

    All in all, hens' eggs are often taken away, not because they don't get angry, but because people take them secretly. The hen can remember the number of eggs she lays, but she suffers from the fact that the eggs are always stolen and can only continue to work hard to lay eggs. If you go to get the eggs in person, you will definitely be attacked by the hens.

    Why doesn't the hen get angry when she sees the egg being taken?

    As a child who grew up in the countryside, I can tell you responsibly that hens are egg-guarders, and if you are brave enough to take her eggs in front of her, you may be pecked by her sharp beak. Why is it possible? This is because chickens have been domesticated by humans for more than 8,000 years, and they have accompanied human life since human civilization entered agricultural civilization.

    So most chickens are still relatively docile, sometimes you steal eggs in front of it, it won't peck you, but it doesn't mean that it has no emotions for you.

    There are two scenarios.

    Article**2 Take its eggs in front of the hen, from the hen's point of view, if you always take its eggs away in front of it, it is equivalent to you are snatching its child, it is angry, but dare to be angry and dare not speak, what should I do? In order to avoid repeating the mistakes of the past, the egg-guarding hen will go outside to lay eggs, so that you can't find them. You may not see an egg in the coop for ten days and a half months, but it is actually all laid outside.

    I have a deep understanding of this, because the old hen in my hometown used to be an egg every 2 3 days, but once I didn't see an egg for ten days and half a month, I was curious to look around, and found that there were 6 eggs in a firewood pile, and the chicken was still very smart.

    Article **3 The other kind is the chicken who dares to be angry and outspoken, this kind of chicken has a strong sense of egg protection, just like a rich man who picks the door, and you are never allowed to take the egg out of its nest in front of you, if you still rob it, then it will definitely peck you. However, this kind of chicken with a strong sense of egg protection is rare, according to the temper of the hen, who raises the chicken will naturally know its temper.

    Why didn't the hen asked in question get angry when she saw the eggs being taken? This kind of chicken is the domestic chicken in most cases, because the chicken has been domesticated by humans for more than 8,000 years, humans take away the eggs, this is fate! Perhaps most chickens are used to it.

    Article**4 In the past, I thought that the way each chicken took eggs may be different, for example, the way I raised chickens to get eggs in front of me: that is, when the chicken lays eggs, he will grab a handful of rice and reward the chicken that lays the eggs, and over time, every time the chicken will run over after laying eggs, it will think that there is food to eat after laying eggs, isn't it beautiful! And most families, that's what they do:

    When the hen lays eggs, wait until it goes out to get the eggs, but when taking the eggs, pay attention to one point, do not take all the eggs at once, and leave one or two eggs in the nest, which is the nest egg. If you take all the eggs at once, the hen will probably learn to lay eggs in the wild. The reason why the eggs are left is because when the hen sees that the number of eggs in the nest is insufficient, she will continue to lay eggs and will not change places.

    Generally speaking, most creatures will protect their children, especially female creatures, with a strong aggressiveness, once they find that there are other creatures invading, in order to protect their children will attack them violently, the mentality of protecting the cubs is clearly reflected in each species, but the hen doesn't seem to be, is the hen so good-tempered?

    Many people who raise chickens, in order to get more eggs, will buy a large number of hens, these hens lay eggs are basically not fertilized, and the hens do not know, as long as a certain number of eggs are laid, the hens will hold the nest and enter the incubation mode. In general, as long as we take a certain number of eggs, then the hen will find that the hard-working hen will continue to order the number of chicks to hatch. Even some hens will run to the owner to show off:

    How capable do you see me? So many eggs were laid.

    Actually, not all hens are like this, some chickens will get angry when they see you taking their eggs, and they will attack immediately, sometimes chasing you for an hour or two, sometimes they will attack you whenever they see you, and they will not forget you. In such a situation, people who want to take the eggs have to outwit them, lure the chickens out of the nest with food, and then steal the eggs.

    The reason why hens who take away eggs are not angry is because hens don't know how to count, they don't have a certain number of eggs for themselves, and their memory is not very good, they only know that too few eggs are not worth hatching, and a large number of eggs can not guarantee that every egg can survive, so they will lay eggs by feeling. Some experienced breeders, when taking the eggs, will leave a few in the nest so that the hens will not notice, and they have been trying to lay enough eggs.

    Of course, when the hen lays eggs and holds the nest, it is best not to take it directly and blatantly, at this time the hen with a good temper will be angry, you are provoking it, people feel that it has been so hard to hatch for so long, and you have to start again when you take it away, and it is very angry to think about it.

    I believe that after reading it, you will finally understand. In my opinion, this is actually an animal instinct, and it is also to ensure the reproduction and survival of their offspring.

    The chicken will not be angry when the egg is taken away, but if the chick is taken away, he will definitely be angry, because the chick has a lifespan and is considered to be its own child.

    So don't take all the eggs when you take them, leave a few eggs in their nests, and the hens won't be in a state of rebellion, because they don't even know that they have eggs that have been taken by others. So it's not that the mothers have a good temper, it's not that they don't treat the eggs as their own children, it's just that they don't know how many eggs they have laid and they don't know how many eggs they have laid, but they have been taken away by others.

  13. Anonymous users2024-01-31

    It's because chickens are used to it, chickens know that they are domestic, and they are often taken away from their eggs, and some chickens even eat their own eggs.

  14. Anonymous users2024-01-30

    It is due to the fact that this animal reacts more slowly, and it does not react at all at first, so it does not get angry.

    Because the chicken doesn't even know how many eggs it lays, it causes others to take it and don't know it.

    I believe that everyone should be no stranger to the creature of chickens, chickens as a kind of poultry so people are particularly familiar, and chickens bring people not only chicken, but also eggs, so the economic value of chickens is very high, and what we want to talk about today is an interesting phenomenon about chickens. Why is it that the eggs are taken away every day, but the mother chicken never gets angry?

    We all know that hens lay eggs, and eggs are a very popular food, but why are humans indifferent to the hens when they take the eggs laid by the hens? In fact, it is necessary to know what kind of difference the eggs laid by the hen are, eggs are divided into fertilized eggs and unfertilized eggs, and unfertilized eggs have no way to hatch chicks at all.

    In fact, have you noticed one thing? That is, when people go to get eggs, they take advantage of the hen's absence. Instead of taking it in front of the hen, and the hen has a very interesting behavior, that is, the hen knows to count the eggs she lays, if there is one less egg is not to look for it, but to continue to produce, so that the eggs reach that number again, this is the hen's replenishment model.

    Therefore, you can often see people taking away the eggs laid by the hen, but they do not take all the eggs, but leave one, of course, there are also people who put a fake egg to fool the hen, and this egg is the nest egg. And the hen is very much identified with her own eggs, so even if you put someone else's eggs in the hen's eggs, the hen will hatch.

    If people take her eggs in front of the hen, then the hen will attack, after all, those eggs are the children of the hens, they are the brainchild of the hens, friends, do you now understand how people raise hens to lay eggs?
