Does anyone let their pet chicken sleep in their house at night in a cage?

Butterfly asked:

I let my chicken sleep in the house at night in a cage. when it starts to get dark she comes to the back door and makes her chicken noises to let me know she’s wanting in. I think its so cute. Then when it’s morning I put her outside, she stays outside all day until night time.

    My boyfriend had a pet chicken….it thought it was a dog (he had a dog when he got the ***** and it followed the dog around). We brought it in every night to keep it safe from predators. When it was full grown, we donated it to a petting zoo. Chickens are cool!

    Yes, during the winter. I have three. Spit, Spat, and Spot. They sleep in plastic food crates with straw.

    No, but when it gets cold out I bring my chickens inside until it warms up again…so sometimes they spend a few days inside. That’s not fun because I get woken up at 5 am by crowing. LOL!
