chocchick Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 Hope this has not been posted elsewhere, I couldn't find it on a search. I was in a TV shop showing adverts for BBC HD and was captivated by the trailer for the secret life of the chicken. It is with Jimmy Doherty too. There was lots of footage of chickens being chickeny, pecking round, pecking each other and even eating a mouse. http://www.bbc.co.uk/tv/comingup/the-secret-life-of-cows-chickens-pigs/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lydia Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 Yes it is the one featuring Jane from BHWT. It's been postponed but the last BHWT newsletter hoped it would be on in July sometime but didn't have a defnite date. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicken Mad Posted July 11, 2010 Share Posted July 11, 2010 Thank you very much to all of you! I am so glad that I am part of the omlet forum. At present we are renovating our house and so our TV is in the garage gathering dust. To be perfectly honest we don't miss TV at all, it was in the garage for over 2 month now. But I am really looking forward to see this program. Just had a quick look at the cow episode and seems really good! I will iplayer all of them!

Griffin Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 Have to confess - I was surprised they recognised the shapes. Aaaah but did they? Or could they just smell the worms? Or sense their movement? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
migsy Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 Good point Griffin. Perhaps they smelt them. How keen are their noses (I mean beaks)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madchickenlady Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 I loved it! So lovely to see the ex-batts learning to behave naturally. It was marvellous and heartbreaking at the same time. Have to say, though, that as a dedicated chook pet I didn't learn anything new I already knew they'd do anything for mealworms! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dangri Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 I'll admit I did say to my OH that they could smell it out... I mean they were mealworms, and they're the best treat ever!! My girls can smell them out before I've stepped out onto the patio! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
