Chicken Videos
Want to see what my (usual) chickens look like? Here are a few short videos:
Click to watch my chickens Raven, Louise, and Minerva dustbathing on a sunny day.
You can see they are keeping an eye on my camera!
Click to see a very short video of Ada pecking at an apple on a tree in my backyard.
Note: the apples have socks on them to protect them from apple maggots. The maggots can’t get through the socks to reach the apples. But Ada learned how to pull them off… Ada is a very smart chicken, although she doesn’t always do what she’s supposed to!
