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.

The song featured in this video is ’4 Can Keep A Secret If 3 Of Them Are Dead’ by Apparatjik [Meta Merge Un Recordings Ltd].

Copyright – all musical material in this video is that of the artist featured and I do not claim to have created any of it myself.

This breed originated in China or somewhere in Southeast Asia. Silkies have soft hair like feather. They also have five toes and unlike other chicken breeds they have black skin. They are sweet natured and friendly. However the hens tend to be broody, which is why other breeders use them to hatch the eggs of other breeds.
