I love to sit and just watch mine interact with each other. I find it stress reducing. I think they are comical. I love the way they scratch the earth and THEN look to see what they have uncovered. They have different personalities. The eggs I get are fresh and delicious. Some of my pet chickens are so friendly they pester me to be held, follow me, sit with me.
