Ensuring they have a stimulating environment and adequate food in their own space can help manage such explorative tendencies.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Read on to find out more in-depth information about why chickens want to come into the house and how you can prevent it from happening if it becomes an issue. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Just to let you know before we start, we sometimes recommend products which we feel might be helpful for a particular topic.

But chances are they want to know if you have food.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity is-style-wide\">\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Stop Chickens Going Inside Your House<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As a chicken-owner myself, I&rsquo;ve experienced this issue first-hand and while it&rsquo;s nice to see chickens pecking around outside your door or coming for a visit, they can sometimes become a problem if they get inside your home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some of my more bold hens wait in ambush for us to open a door and they&rsquo;ll just come running straight in.   The image at the top of this page shows what one of these ambushes looks like.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some chicken owners who keep free-range chickens outside their home have reported chickens sneaking into their homes when they didn&rsquo;t realise and making a mess inside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This can be a particular problem in the summer months when doors and windows are left open and they&rsquo;re at a level where chickens can walk or jump inside.<\/p><p><i>This article was first published on March 10, 2021 by Pentagon-Pets.<\/i><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>If this becomes a problem for you, here are some things you can do to prevent your chickens from getting inside your home:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol>\n<li>Fence or net off an area around the access points to your home with gates that you can get through but chickens can&rsquo;t.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If you like to keep a door open on a hot day, put a baby gate or board across the door.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Make sure there&rsquo;s nothing outside a window that chickens can jump onto to enable them to get inside.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Try not to give chickens food from the house so they don&rsquo;t associate it with treats.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Don&rsquo;t let them spend any time inside the house so they don&rsquo;t get used to it.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity is-style-wide\">\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is it Bad to Have Chickens Inside Your House?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Its quite surprising just how many chicken keepers allow their chickens to spend time in their home and within chicken groups opinion this topic seems to be split into two halves:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>a. those who always let their chickens in the house;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>b. those who would never want their chickens inside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For me it&rsquo;s the b option, although I love my chickens I don&rsquo;t want them coming inside my house because I&rsquo;ve see the mess they make outside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>It can be bad to have chickens inside your house because A chicken is a pretty clumsy animal and they also poo a lot in varying consistencies depending on what they&rsquo;ve been finding to eat. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chicken poo and in fact chickens themselves can carry bacteria that are harmful to humans and by having them in the home, the risk of becoming sick from these bacteria is much higher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I found this out first hand when I contracted campylobacter from a chicken who loved sitting with me outdoors, it made me really ill and since then I&rsquo;ve been a lot more hygiene conscious when it comes to chickens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As well as bacteria, chickens can quickly cause messes and breakages if they get into an area that isn&rsquo;t chicken friendly.  You only have to see the damage they can do in a flower bed in a very short amount of time to see how this could pan out inside a home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity is-style-wide\">\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Chickens Knocking on a Door or Window<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before I finish this article, I just want to talk about this quirky things which chickens can do if they&rsquo;re hanging out by your doors or full length windows. <\/p><p><i>Pentagon Pet is the owner of this article that was first published on March 10, 2021.<\/i><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This might sound crazy unless you&rsquo;ve witnessed it happening, but chickens will actually peck at the window or door so it sounds like someone is knocking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At first, I thought this might have been because they were pecking at their reflection, but I&rsquo;ve witnessed them doing it when there&rsquo;s no reflection and I&rsquo;m pretty sure they do it to get your attention or because they want to come inside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chickens are actually quite a bit more intelligent than many people think, so keep an eye out for this sneaky tactic they might use to get you to open the door!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity is-style-wide\">\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">You Might Also Like<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I hope this post has helped you to find out more about why chickens want to come inside your house,  you might also like the following articles too:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/pentagonpets.com\/do-chickens-show-affection-to-humans\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">Do chickens show affection to humans?<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/pentagonpets.com\/how-far-will-chickens-roam-or-wander-from-the-coop\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">How far will chickens roam or wander from the coop?<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/pentagonpets.com\/why-do-chickens-wipe-their-beaks\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">Why do chickens wipe their beaks?<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/pentagonpets.com\/what-time-do-roosters-crow\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">What Time do Roosters Crow?<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/pentagonpets.com\/how-to-bond-with-chickens-of-any-age\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">How to Bond With Chickens (of Any Age)<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity is-style-wide\">\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns has-background is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-1 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\" style=\"background-color:#f2f7f9\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Our recommended coop <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Chicken coop for different flock sizes and different weather.<\/p><p><i>This article and its contents are owned by Pentagon Pets and was first published on March 10, 2021.<\/i><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/pentagonpets.com\/recommended-products-for-chicken-keeping\/recommended-chicken-coops\/#omlet-cube-coop\" rel=\"nofollow\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">Click here to find out more about our recommended coop.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"924\" height=\"507\" src=\"\/\/pentagonpets.b-cdn.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/chickencoop.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2592\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pentagonpets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/chickencoop.jpg 924w, https:\/\/pentagonpets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/chickencoop-300x165.jpg 300w, https:\/\/pentagonpets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/chickencoop-768x421.jpg 768w, https:\/\/pentagonpets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/chickencoop-735x403.jpg 735w, https:\/\/pentagonpets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/chickencoop-335x184.jpg 335w, https:\/\/pentagonpets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/chickencoop-347x190.jpg 347w, https:\/\/pentagonpets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/chickencoop-520x285.jpg 520w, https:\/\/pentagonpets.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/chickencoop-640x351.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw -
