My daily dose of cuteness 🥰 Squeaky and Mr Snuggles are so hilarious. They really were showing you they wanted their yum yums right there. They are so precious. The narration makes it funny as well. One week left!!🥳 HATCH DAY!!
Hi Janelle, You are so kind. :-) I also find those two the funniest of the bunch, and sometimes Precious is too. The quirkier the hen, the funnier the personality and the more insistent of getting their yum yums it seems! Tiem just flies - I cannot beleive it takes just 3 weeks for chicks to hatch. Have a great day!
Hello Mrs R.K. I was smiling throughout the video . Every time I see those tail shields go up I start laughing . They really are great little chicks and Mr Snuggles is a very handsome rooster ¨! Only a week to go, doesn't it seem incredible ? Have a lovely day !
🤗So glad they make you smile. They even make me smile watching them back! It really does seem incredible how fast those little chicks grow within those shells. So exciting. Nature is magnificent. Have a wonderful day!
I really like your channel, and Your chickens are beautiful ,luv the pop ups. Wish the Serama’s were available in Australia as I would definitely like to have some. Good luck with the hatching.
Hi Darren, great to hear from you all the way over in Australia. So glad you are enjoying the videos. I like to put some of what feisty little thoughts I'm sure must be going on in their heads onto the videos :-) Seramas originate in Malaysia - are you sure there are none in Australia? I know that America has them because a breeder specifically took them over there and I assume the same happened here in UK. Maybe it is worth checking some serama facebook groups to see if anyone has done the same in australia and might be willing to sell? Then again, different countries have different poultry laws and so it might be more difficult to get them where you are. Good to hear from you. Have a great day.
@@r.k.dreamingspetchickens1266 just think... since birds are descended from dinosaurs millions of years ago, dinosaurs might have done something similar as well!
@@Shinzon23 Apparently, of all birds, chickens and turkeys are most closely related to dinosaurs. It is hilarious to think of huge dinos behaving like our feisty chickens, and sometimes I really can see the dinosaur in each of our brave little birds!
I LOVE your channel!!🐣🐔🐓 I had Bantams years ago, they are SO wonderful.... because of all the great close up filming you do.. it's very hard to tell they are pretty small chickens, compared to full size... if you can take more long shots, when they are next to items that help show their smaller size, it would be nice... like when Mr. Snuggles was on your white wrought iron table.. I could see his actual small miniature size better.. thank you, so enjoying all videos!!!
Hi DD, so glad you enjoy my channel 😊😊 Keeping chickens really is so amusing and bantams are so cute - gad you got a chance to enjoy them. That is a great point about not being able to tell how small they are. I think I got used to their tiny size so this did not occur to me. I will see what I can do about shots which show their little size in future. Appreciate you pointing this out 😊😊 All the best.
Hi Monika. he was hatched in the same nest and grew up with them. We got the eggs from ebay, so I am not certain of the relationship. He and Precious's egg did have the same word/name on them, so perhaps they might have a parent in common. I am not certain. Have a great day.
Hi Space War, yes I will keep making them. I hope you enjoy watching the chicks grow up! Thanks for commenting and enjoying the videos, and have a great day.
Boy, it seems temerity is spelled S.Q.U.E.A.K. She does not take "NO" for an answer, haha. The broccoli seemed to be at least an interesting menu item.
lol. If I had known, I might have named her Temerity! Aha. I actually like that as a name now you mention it. When I named her she was young and was actually bottom of the flock at that stage, a bit skittish, and had her tiny little squeaks. Hence the name. I love that she has grown into such a bit personality now. :-)
don't stop updating us, okay? 🥺I really want to see the chicks, I've got emotionally attached to precious and sweat pea, oh and don't forget squeaky, lulu and Mr snuggles (lmao did I miss anyone?)
Hi Baka, you remembered everyone :-) I will keep posting and you will be sure to see everyone you have been attached to in future videos. Appreciate your lovely comment. Have a great day.
Mine shuffles then pecks. After a while he started doing that but on my hand and then set started doing it more often. Anyway I uploaded a vid about something I've learnt about work my youngest roo.
Hi Cornish, I am always wondering quite what that 'paso doble' shuffle means with mine. I try to never let Mr Snuggles peck because then it gets worse and worse, like a toddler testing his limits. I either pick him up or make him bow his head so that he knows I am dominant in the pecking order. lol. He makes me laugh. Thanks for your video. I just checked it out :-) He is such a sweet rooster!
Hi Jane, a planter would have been a perfect idea but I didnt have time to find one that fit. This was more of a DIY planter made from heavy duty cardboard crates with a couple of layers of tarp fastened on top. Once it had the woodchip bedding in, it was heavy enough to sit there itself. If you get a planter that doesnt quite fit, you could probably drill a few holes in it then attach it in place with extra long zip ties - they are very strong. The only thing to note is that your chickens may take to roosting on it overnight! They seem to enjoy finding the highest possible spot to roost, and for us, this was it in their enclosure. They're so funny - one side of the box was about an inch higher than the other side and they all wanted to roost on the higher side. Pecking order dramatics!
Hi! Can you show me what kind of waterer you will get ? My serama’s chabo eggs hatch on Tuesday and I need a new system also as the bottle caps need to be cleaned several times a day ! Also what are you doing with the eggs you are collecting from squeak and Lulu ?
Hi Bhaar, I had a look online and couldnt find a waterer I liked. I have decided to use shallow dishes with pebbles in them to stop the chicks from accidentally being submerged. I think hopefully they should be fine with that system while still tiny. (You'll see in a future video.) I will not get a special waterer because we do not hatch chicks often enough, but I have seen a drip-watering system you might like here: instagram.com/p/CKf2E1DAHht/? . Search for user quailenthusiast on instagram and maybe you can message him to get details of the watering system he uses? (instagram.com/quailenthusiast/) Hope you find something you like.
Hi Solaris. Thank you -glad you enjoy watching. I only talk about my chickens on this channel but wish you the best of luck with yours. Just make videos on something you love and you will find others in the world who love it too. Good luck with your vids! Have a great day.

I think better not to candle the eggs. One day after hatching, candle that less developed egg. If it needed a few more days then put it in an incubator.
Hi Sam, thanks for the suggestion. I don't have an incubator - I never planned to hatch eggs until my chickens went broody. My mum, who grew up raising chickens, also recommends not handling the eggs too much, but I have found that it has not caused any issues. This time just 3 candlings for this batch, but I think I did more than that with Artemis's eggs and they were fine. It depends on the temperament of the hen, and also not wanitng to contaminate or breaking the eggs of course. I like to check inside to ensure that if any of the embryos dies, the egg doesnt go rotten on the nest. I know hens can deal with this themselves by pushing out a rotten egg, but with my nesting box that might be hard for them to do. Plus my little broodies dont mind so much. They are well settled and happy. Do you also keep chickens? Thanks for being concerned and the advice, and have a great day!
@@r.k.dreamingspetchickens1266 I used to keep chickens in the past. I had built my own incubator, which wasn't that difficult by using a thermostat and a 100w lamp. Hope the eggs all hatch at one day, but if doesn't happen, maybe one hen can take care of the less developed eggs and the other hen takes care of the hatchlings.
@@MeysamShojaeeNejad Thanks Sam, I was thinking the same thing that it is good there are two broody hens in case it is needed to deal with a slower hatch. Good thinking :-) Must have been fun to built your own incubator and see it work.
Can't wait to see how they gonna divide the chicks!
Me too! I hope they all get along. Take care
supper cool dinosaur
lol! Thanks
Thank you so much for these videos! I love your speech bubbles with the chickens talking. 💜
Hi Susan, You are so welcome! Hope you keep enjoying them and thanks for taking hte time to let me know :-) Have a great day!
These vids🐓always come out in the middle of the night because U guys are on the other side of "the pond"😂🤣😂
aha. And also because I always end up editting them late after my day's work ends. Glad you have them to enjoy in the morning though :-)

So do i definitely! Go away mama so i can lay my egg ! Love it ♥️♥️🐔
mr Snuggles and Sweet Pea are so cute!!!

Wow the tail Shield goes up quickly now... it's still incredibly adorable and I don't know why chickens think it scares you off...
They are trying to make themselves look big and scary by puffing up. Little so they realise it only adds to their cuteness! :-)
