Guest Posted May 19, 2006 Report Posted May 19, 2006 Last year we had a thunderstorm predicted for late afternoon/early evening Saturday. Our birds were put up early, so that they would be home before the weather hit. Not so, we had a very slow tough race with heavy losses. My question is, can the birds sense that there is a storm coming in eventhough it could be at least 8/10 hours away.
Guest TAMMY_1 Posted May 19, 2006 Report Posted May 19, 2006 I DON'T KNOW ABOUT BIRDS HYACINTH BUT THEY HAVE PROVED THAT CERTAIN ANIMALS COULD PREDICT WHEN BAD WEATHER IS COMING AND I MAY BE WRONG HERE BUT DO COWS NOT MOVE IN TO ONE CORNER OF THE FIELD WHEN BAD WEATHER IS COMING
Guest Posted May 19, 2006 Report Posted May 19, 2006 They can most certainly sense a thunder storm. I tried to let my YBs out last night and as normal just opened the door expecting them to fly out. Not a single one would come out even when I tried to force them out, so I shut the door and left them in. It was blue skies when I first opened the door and twenty minutes later the heavens opened with thunder overhead. This is the second time this has happened to mine.
jimmy white Posted May 19, 2006 Report Posted May 19, 2006 i sure you right hyacinth, if you watch them carefully, im sure they sense many things in the atmosphere, only my opinion
robert.sutherland Posted May 20, 2006 Report Posted May 20, 2006 wish my birds had stayed in the crate last week at least they would have all got home i have cat and a dogs and if its going to rain at all they will not go out just stay in all day lazy so and so s but definitely not stupid now if the wife is duo home and this is not a regular thing and no set time but about 5 minutes before shes home they all start getting giddy until shes home so how do they know that . yours in sport BOB
