Crow training box for chickens

crow box for chickens who want to work

Have you ever dreamed of
training your chickens to bring you shiny coins in exchange for some
kind of machine dispensed treat? Well that day may be close at hand
thanks to an exciting open source project known as the
Crow
Box
by writer and hacker
Joshua Klein.




It may need to be lower to
the ground, and it’s debatable if chickens are smart enough to learn
and remember a task like this, but it sure would be fun to watch.




Maybe having a group of crows
demonstrating the coin drop procedure would be enough for most chickens
to learn? Could they learn the same lesson by watching a video of the
crows doing their thing? Maybe a more practical approach would be to train chickens to bring acorns to a box that grinds it up into something the chickens can consume?
