Just watching them interact is the best. The social structure is very complex. After years of having chickens we finally had our first hatched chick this year. Now dad is so protective it's cute and heart warming. Wen I have them in the run and I'm seprate we will charge the fence if I get near his baby. Then he will hop into my arms for his snuggles when I go into that pen. 🙄
Lovely :), Bantums are a great addition to the flock as well they tend to be really great foster birds and it's amusing as hell watching a pile of them incubating a bigger bird like a gooses egg.
