Hello chicken keepers,
If you know a man that has chickens, they are a chicken dad. They may not have been expecting it, or it may have been planned for a while, but either way they are a devoted father. If you are such a man – congratulations! Caring, independent and never short of a joke, have a peck at 5 reasons Chicken Dads are the unsung heroes of the backyard chicken coop.

- Chicken Dads are responsible
If you have a man that can rise at the crack of dawn every day without fail; tend to your flock’s every need; provide them with endless food, water and exercise; all the while protecting them from potential threats – then you have a keeper! Raising chickens is basically the same as raising children…right?

- Chicken Dads are smart
They know what all those different clucks and bocks mean. They know how to read bird body language. They know which eggs belong to which hen. And at the end of the day, they know that happy chooks = happy life.

- Chicken Dads are funny
When it comes to comedy, chooks are a pretty tough crowd. If a joke falls flat, there’ll be no sympathy laughter, just a disapproving look as they return to their pecking duties. Chicken dads have honed their dad jokes in the toughest environment, so they’re sure to leave you with at least a cringey smile.

- Chicken Dads aren’t needy
Just like their feathered family, chicken dads are more than happy pottering around the garden all day, soaking up the sunshine and fresh air. As long as they have food, water and shelter they feel happy and loved.
