The chickens seemed more interested in getting to the food that was being rattled in tins

They all looked happy enough in the video

my banties would fly to get to the mealworms rather than walk. I will say I didn't like the fact that he kept his chicken apart from his others because they like the company of the other hens.

Here in South Lincolnshire we have the World Egg Throwing Championship (held at one of our village fetes) and now even get competitors from all over Europe taking part.
Staffies are softer than you think.
