Lee Kye-in reveals crows raided his poultry farm and stole eggs

Lee Kye-in, who is living a life in the countryside, revealed a ridiculous anecdote about his poultry farm being raided by a flock of crows. During the broadcast of MBC's 'Radio Star' on the 28th, the unexpected hardships Lee Kye-in faced while living in the countryside were discussed.

"Opening their mouths to take two eggs at once" – an organized crow raid

Lee Kye-in shared a recent incident where all the eggs he was keeping at his poultry farm were stolen by crows. He stated that from spring to summer, he had gathered about 50 to 60 eggs in a nest near a zelkova tree for hatching, but one morning he found that not a single egg remained.

Initially, he suspected security issues or theft and even considered checking CCTV, but the culprit turned out to be crows. Lee Kye-in explained that he witnessed the crows doing more than just eating the eggs; they would open their mouths wide to grab two eggs at once and fly away. "They open their mouths wide so that two eggs fit in at a time," he said, describing the situation.

According to Lee Kye-in's explanation, the crows' behavior was highly organized. He said they moved as if they had a hierarchy, and they took all 60 eggs in a manner where one crow would fly off with an egg and the next would immediately follow. He added that crows sitting on a utility pole in front of his house would even call their companions to stare at him, creating a sense of intimidation whenever he appeared.

Lee Kye-in reported that he tried to chase the crows away with a pole, but the crows' momentum was so great that it felt as though they were the ones chasing him.

Crow revenge and the tension of rural life

In the process of trying to drive the crows away, Lee Kye-in responded by throwing stones at the utility pole, but he expressed concern that the crows might remember this and seek revenge. He voiced worries that the crows might shake the utility pole to threaten him or throw stones when people pass by, revealing the tension with nature encountered in rural life.
