Harvey the Great is Dying. . .

A lot of internet providers make uploading far slower than downloading. Try reuploading the video and when it stalls, wait a couple hours to see if it's advanced by even one percent.

You know I have been thinking that perhaps it's my internet connection/provider at fault for this. I cannot "wait" a couple of hours to see if something happens! I have limited internet access, first of all, and second it will "time out" and log off automatically if it does not detect "activity" after 15 minutes! I WILL figure it out, I will!

Ok, lets see if this worked. I took a very short video of Harvey vocalizing so you can hear the sounds he makes. try this:

Hubby says he sounds like a donkey!

OMG, did you see how much bigger he is than the hen? He's like that 6'8" guy who is super mellow and protects his sisters.

He sure does not sound like a rooster! He walks around making this sound all day when he is happy!

Yeah, he's a big boy and very nice. Eats out of my hand and follows me expecting treats like the girls. He won't let anyone next to him but me, I can get about 2 feet from him before he moves away.

We need a love button, like is just not a strong enough choice!!! He is just so beautiful. I love all the little noises chickens make. I can tell which chicken is where just by the sounds they make.

You are right, we need a love button. And you are right about the sounds chickens make. They are all different and unique, although I think Harvey sounds more like a goose than a chicken! I want to make a couple more videos of Harvey "talking".

Harvey continues to do well. I'm trying to get some videos to show his behavior. This was taken this morning. I let the chickens out of the run and threw down a handful of dried meal worms. Here is the result!
