    I used to have chickens a few years ago, and they lived in pretty much exactly this kind of environment - it was quite wholesome to see them walk around like this, and then go back to the pen when it got dark.
    Sometimes they would also fly up in trees, and sleep there, lol.

      They also could have gotten their wings clipped so they couldn't fly off. Which is a common practice.

    Hi Chicken channel,
    Is it an "ancient" oak tree that they use for roosting?
    Did you put the wire mesh up to prevent mustelid attacks?

    • @chickenchannel5010
      @chickenchannel5010  6 років тому +5

      Coturnix Coturnix yes it’s a very old oak tree, originating from when the whole area was still ancient woodland, I believe one of the oldest oak trees in England if I’m correct, certainly the oldest in my county. The wire is there to stop foxes as that side of the tree is sloped enough too scrabble up and get the lower perching birds.

    • @panoken2130
      @panoken2130 3 роки тому

      I don't think that specific wire mesh would stop a mustelid. Those holes are certainly big enough for any weasel or stoat to fit through.
      Edit: Oh, I didn't need to say anything, foxes ↑.

      Actually they’re pretty safe up there. That’s why they go up there. Most of their predators aren’t climbing a tree and if they do or try to the chickens alert one another and start taking off. Source: 6 year old me chasing chickens out of trees.

    God put the instinct and know-how to fly In chickens. Their wings are built of that of a flying bird. Even instinctualy flying up to roost in a tree, as the jungle fowl they originally were found as. They've been cultivated by humans for over 50,000 years. They only can't fly today thanks to our cruelty of torturous modified convenience breeding over thousands of years. Look up a picture of a chicken in 1950 verses today's chicken. Imagine how much we've altered them even before 1950.
