** Noticed Title is spelt wrong not sure how to change that sorry**
a friend sent me this link to a nice story and videos on just how smart those birds are.
"Chickens exist in stable social groups. They can recognize each other by their facial features. They have 24 distinct cries that communicate a wealth of information to one other, including separate alarm calls depending on whether a predator is travelling by land or sea. They are good at solving problems. As a trick at conferences I sometimes list these attributes, without mentioning chickens, and people think I'm talking about monkeys."
