Chicken Catching: Part 3

My husband was skeptical when the $10.99 chicken hook arrived. I’ll admit, it was low-tech – a four-foot think metal rod with a wooden handle on one end and a curved j-hook on the other. But it quickly fell into the Top Ten Essential Farm Implements category. When we needed to catch a chicken during daylight hours, we only had to use the hook to grab a chicken by the leg. No more chasing, cornering, and flapping wings.

  1. We had one of these when i was growing up, i think it was hand made by my Dad. Worked pretty slick! I still miss the chickens, loved sitting and watching them lay their eggs in the straw nest. A good time... :)
