    LOL, I love the bok bok movies with subtitles!

    Bok bok bok! When we were kids we used to do "chicken movies." We picked stories everyone knew - like the poor family where the bad landlord insists that the family pay the rent or else take the daughter off and the train will run over her - and then is saved by some big hulk. We performed them in Chicken - bok bok, and had subtitles. It was fabulous. And I miss my chickens! They were such dearies. Thank you for your fine lens. I loved it!

    I like chickens. As pets, not to eat. Very educational lens.

    We can't have chickens in the city I live in now...they are considered "livestock" I was told. I raised bantams when I was a teenager though. I had a coop for them, and they were such fun to watch. I would love to be able to have some chickens again! We never had to buy eggs at the store!

    Great article! I've considered raising chickens and this article has given me more food for thought.

    They recently changed the laws in my city to make it easier to keep backyard chickens. But, no ducks, yet.

    I used to have a backyard flock and would really love to have one again. I miss them! And their delicious eggs! ;) I really enjoyed reading your lens. I'm submitting it for the "I Brake for Animals!" SquidQuest.

    Very Nice Lens! I enjoyed looking at it. I raise chickens and enjoy them a lot. I have 35 birds currently that I raise in the country for eggs but my family and I started out by raising just 4 hens in our backyard in town.

    How do you keep chickens happy when it rains for days on end?

    Wish I could do this but my yard is too small. You have great information here.

    Wow you are clearly into Backyard chickens. A super informative and easy to read article. I have been considering getting a chicken or two myself. I have some composting worms now and a pretty extensive vegetable garden. Thanks for the great info.

    Much more humane! People tend to think of cage-free as cruelty-free, but often that's not the reality. In a garden, though, it's another matter. Squidangel blessings.

    We have chickens here on our farm in Brazil. They eat mangoes and the fruit of the cashew trees when they are in season. We have a lot of snakes where we are and even the chicks have caught small ones. A lot of useful information here, thanks for the tips.
