The Private Life of Chickens


"There are more of them on this planet than any other bird. 24 billion in fact.
They are the closest living relative to Tyrannosaurus Rex.
Yet we know little about the lives of chickens. Is there really a pecking order in the farmyard?
Are they truly bird brained or are they quite clever? What does all that clucking mean? Why do some birds change sex?
Farmer Jimmy Doherty wants to know and he spends a week on a Devon farm to discover just what goes on behind the hen house door."
How did I manage to miss this, by not looking in a TV guide that's how.
Oh well I'm thinking it will be repeated or there is always BBC i player.
You'll have to tell me if it's worth watching, please...
