My son Max wanted to get his submission in before it's too late. :)

No chickens were harmed in the making of this video, though perhaps Rosie ate one too many cherry tomatoes.

Enjoy!

This is why I raise a pet that makes me breakfast. It is a friendship the excitement of eggs hatching. The guessing game rather a rooster or hen. Watching the feathers grow. Waiting for the rooster to crow. Waiting for all the hens to lay. look at the chicks. look out for the double yolk egg. First come First serve . I love eggs and raising a pet that makes me breakfast.

happima, I edited your post to make the video embedded vs. just a link.

mamas farm, that's a fun video, but it's under 3 minutes
 
What a great idea, being new to this I found BYC by searching for info on Google on building a coop and raising a BY flock. The info is scattered and disorganized, except for here at BYC.

Now I can use YouTube and simply search 'How to Raise Chickens" or "www.backyardchickens.com" and get informative, fun videos on how best to start with backyard chickens. Love it! Can't wait to see all the entries!
 
oops can I put up another video I loaded the wrong one sorry .thanks to another member I have learned to post video's and I love it. I like to watch every ones video's of there chickens and hear there stories. It just brings the picture alive. Thanks byc for this opportunity.
