This video features 54 of the most common breeds of chicken from around the world. I have kept pet chickens in a coop/run, which I made myself, in my back garden for two years. One of my hens is a Sussex and the other is a Welsummer. They both lay eggs and are more entertaining than you may imagine. I previously also owned an Orpington.

There are also those who see roosters fighting as a traditional activity and part of their culture. Fighting has been known for over 3,000 years! It was enjoyed in ancient Egypt, Greece, and Rome. It was also very popular in medieval Europe. In many countries this activity was considered noble and often the rooster fights became a national sport. Also, scientists think that if the fighting is outlawed completely several breeds of chicken may become extinct. Therefore, they believe that chicken fighting should be allowed and considered a sport that people enjoy.

This video shows an unusual chicken breed in unusual looks. Most Ameraucanas seen somewhere else are most likely mixed. In this video, they are in their original colors and genes. The black and red ones are Wheatens, while the grey and red ones are Blue Wheatens. The white ones are Ameraucana hens, while the others are other breeds. The white rooster is a splash, which is like a “wild card”.
