No! I have no idea where they came from. They seem pretty used to people.

See if anyone within a reasonable distance is missing birds

We only have one close elderly neighbor. Im gonna try and catch her in this evening when she walks her dog & find out if she knows where they’re from.

take them in for now, then ask around. It’s better to keep them with you to enure they’re safe until you find out who’s they ar. If you don’t figure it out, then keep them! Nothing wrong with free chickens right? Of course I wouldn’t put them with your flock for a while since they could be carrying diseases from theirs

 

[Dinoroar]

Yeah. I’m just grateful it’s not more stray dogs at this point

Maybe someone knows you have birds and dropped them off. It has happened to me. We are rural on a dead end road and every now and then people will drop off (relocate) their unwanted predator or pets they no longer want.

It’s really possible that’s the case. This guys pretty loud so if he’d been living anywhere reasonably close I think I’d have heard him.

We have people drop roos off an my house all the time. Probably because I have 8 that live permanently. What they probably don't know is what I do with the ones I don't keep XD
