Chickens, the Log, and the Camera.

[Lurch77]

Today I threw a couple pieces of rotting log in the run for the chickens to play on and pull apart for the bugs inside. They loved it. They were so happy and making the most soothing sounds as I sat watching. So I figured I would get a video. But as soon as they saw the camera that was it. They had to come check it out. And then they noticed that me kneeling there pushed grass against the fence, which they tried eating through the fence. These birds are every bit as entertaining as our dog and cats.

You're welcome. We live in a small city that, with my efforts, is only now passing an ordinance to allow chickens (shhh, mine are undocumented immigrants at the moment). If many of the people that are not so sure about having a small backyard flock could see how fun and entertaining chickens can be, and that they are not just dumb, noisy, smelling animals like they think, then every city in the country would allow them.

I love it! They are hilarious - I love when a chicken head pokes up and looks straight into the camera. So hilarious!
