[@brandontheplantguy.838]

I already do!! 4 ISA Brown hens. Angel, Thunder Chick, Stevie Chicks, and Black Betty. They are about 25 weeks old, and have been hand fed and snuggled since they were 2 weeks old. I've started to harness and leash train them, and the bonds these girls have formed with me and my children is remarkable.. they run to us when they see us, and fly up onto our arms, and jump into our laps for kisses and cuddles. They groom us, take naps purring in our laps, and follow us around while we tend to their coop.

I rescued a chicken I found hiding underneath one of my front bushes. It was raining, and she was trying to stay dry. She had fallen off of Tyson chicken transport truck, as there is a plant a few miles from me. She was so gentle, and let me pick her up. Her beak had been damaged in the fall, so I fed her softened dog food, and as long as I kept her chicken feed deep enough, she could eat. She'd roost right next to my shoulder every night out on the porch and would even get on the big dog bed with my two big dogs! I loved her so much, and I still miss her terribly.

[@FatGuyTries]

I had several chickens when my wife and I lived in Hernando FL. The sweetest bird I had was a Rhode Island red named Cinnamon. This little girl from the time she was born was deeply attached to me. She'd be waiting on the porch for me to open the door in the morning so she could come in and see her daddy. I would go sit back down on the couch and she would come trotting over and jump in my lap and nest. I loved enjoying my coffee while petting her and she would often fall asleep right in my lap. I have never had such good eggs in my life since those birds. I miss you Cinnamon, daddy will always love you.

[@armymedic_bnw]

I like this sentiment. 😊

[@freespeechisdead202]

They crow to determine territory and warn others around that they are there. Going back to wild chickens, this is what roosters did to warn predators and other wild animals of their presence. Its like what many other animals do in the wild when they live in a family orientated situation. They crow mainly in the mornings because this is when all the hens get up off their perches and roosting branches and go to ground and search for food and become active and the roosters warn others that they are there or for others to stay away. Kind of like when you walk in the forest and you want to make noises so bears arent startled and attack by surprise. Or when you hear birds sing in the morning or during the day. A birds life like many other wildlife is constantly on high alert.

When there was finally just one chicken, who yes, was invited into my house and also was my father's last pet who would sit outside with him for hours, it was a different level of contact and friendship.

This little guy isn't just responding to a set of signals, but actively participating in these games of hide and seek, staying focused on finding his "bestie" without getting sidetracked. Such a cuddler, too!

Chickens are so great, they can be so cuddly and sweet

[@mixer.r2290]

Yeah real sweet depends on the style it’s made though 🍽️

[@meemz7098]

I don’t know whose luckier, Koji or you and your daughter!❤❤❤ My heart was warmed by this!! Please put runners on the floor for him!! He’s sliding all over and his poor little joints! ❤️

[@cutiepawsa876]

I love what you said about the way people treat chicken I couldn’t have said it better myself. Thank you for putting up that message so people may be will start being kinder to animals.

[@linda6987]

He’s beautiful! ♥️🐓♥️

[@ANAHATAJADE]

You are so absolutely right on!!!! Thank you for sharing this wonderful and beautiful rooster! Love this!!!

[@viviendaquino8364]

❤ Thank you for representing chickens and for taking such wonderful care of this beautiful bird!

[@jedihljones8574]

So many amazing memories of me being at my grandpas growing up, always had a few chickens and the rooster Ralph. Never forgot that sweet feisty baby. He would fly at me when I got Millie's eggs. Sweet when he wanted to be and was my grandpa's heart. Then Popcorn, a white rooster when a baby would dance when you tapped on the table. Nothing could replace or buy the feelings of having those memories with my best friend and guide my grandpa Charles. Love this thank you for reminding me of such pure times ❤ Long Live the Roosters🐓

The most adorable, heartwarming story!! ❤❤

[@micheleterestchenko5091]

Thank you for so much love. Beautiful true story.❤

[@betsygarcia4346]

What a sweet story. Thank you for loving him and sharing his story with us. Your daughter is one awesome young lady!!

[@chambersjc85]

God Bless you, your daughter, and baby boy🐓

[@connielong7057]

He's quite handsome. And I love his story. He has a happy life now❤

[@BunnyQueen97]

Roosters are so sweet 🥰 he sees them as his hens, that’s why he shares food and hates to have them out of his sight!

[@JamaicanemeraldQueen]

Very Handsome and loved Rooster❤😊....Viva la Koji!

[@justdev8965]

I would cuddle this bird. He's so sweet.

[@Vrillon2025]

KFC doesn't think so

[@JusticeWarrior27]

tasty too

[@kenyaouko7388]

These are the reasons I stopped eating meat 2 yrs ago. These babies know when they are loved by someone who is willing to fight for them. Thanks for saving this precious animal, I hope he lives a long healthy life.

[@wellsaidgoodheadfred9843]

its okay to eat fish because they don't have any feelings --nirvana

[@MindVersusMisery]

@@wellsaidgoodheadfred9843 That is absolutely not true. Science have discovered that fish have thoughts, feelings, language and even a form of culture that is specific for them. Stop underestimating them!

[@biancaluedeker]

We should all stop eating eggs too.

[@Robin-xt7yo]

Thank you OP. Wish more ppl think like you do. I gave up eating mammals (cows, pigs, lambs) years ago. Now i'm working on giving up chicken and eventually fish. Most days i'm vegetarian with things like pasta.

[@395PRS]

Why? Your not killing chicks, you know this, right?! This is starting to sound like a Southpark episode....

[@bunnyb9326]

I have been considering getting a roster and a few hens. I have read how smart, clean, and the benefits of having chickens. Seeing Moji has made my choice!! I have pet rats and seeing how emotionally smart they are is amazing!!

[@kathleenshabaan3806]

Absolutely wonderful video ! God bless you all. 😅

[@bkpsly1]

My mom had a pet rooster that she called Chicken! He was a Banty and so pretty! And he had quite the personality, was very fun and feisty. He loved to snuggle and would get right on our laps and lay there, loving being petted and even take naps! He liked to be out and about during the day, but every night a little before dusk, he would come to the door and crow and peck to be let in. She had a big box set up for him with door and a roost and he'd just march in there and go to bed! He died in a very sad way, though. He got on the fence next door and got killed by the neighbors dogs. Was very heartbreaking 😢

[@fab4ever]

@bkpsly1 I am so sorry for your rooster 🐔😢 This was a sweet story and I am sure, up in heaven over the 🌈 your birdy is napping in a lot of boxes on a perch ☮️🙏 I can relate to your buddy's fate. I lost a very beloved bunny to a dog 😢🐇 and have not been the same since. A huge piece of my heart was taken that day.

[@erroldunnigan8574]

This was an awesome story. Thank you for sharing. Poor Rooster, she'll be back.

[@A-Nonnie-Mouse]

That is a really loving household. Great mom. Great daughter. I need to be more like them 😭

[@mariaangelova8275]

Chickens are ao underestimated. They are the most abused animals on the planet. But they are social animals. They form intense bonds with humans and also among their species. We don't give them enough credit. This is why I'm vegan-compassion for all animals.

[@carolinetapia8568]

💚💚💚

[@harveyplantharvester1502]

Cows, pigs, sheep, turkeys and fish are right up there too in terms of most abused life forms on the planet...

[@mariaangelova8275]

@@harveyplantharvester1502 so true

[@julijakeit]

Not a vegan but getting more conscious of what I consume, meat included: local, pasture raised, male chicks allowed to live, organic where possible, ethical products in general.

[@MindVersusMisery]

@@julijakeit All meat is produced with the notion that animals are here for human use. And in the end of the day, they are killed for sensory satisfaction, not for necessity. Please, don't buy into the humane washing. Much better to move in the direction of a vegan lifestyle.

[@cathyking8013]

how precious. poor baby, thank you for rescuing him.

[@SwedePotato314]

1:39. The happy crow and the little run! 😭 Ohh my heart! What a happy little gentleman!

[@Chompchompyerded]

I have had many pet chickens, ducks, and geese over the years, and if you've been with these birds long enough, you have formed bonds with them like the bond in this video. After awhile, you come to realize that these birds are smarter, more full of character and emotion than most people could ever believe. I have had several standouts over the years, but they've all been dear little friends, and it breaks my heart when one of them dies. Koji is a very lucky chicken, and I hope he gets to live a long, happy life. He is clearly living his best life now. I'm glad he found his people!

[@Lilian.94]

This is adorable. My rooster lives outdoors with his girlfriends but misses us when we leave him for work. When we come home, he's so excited and starts running towards us to cuddle.😊

[@LuckyLioness369]

Thank you for being such loving, caring people, and for saving Koji! The way he puffs out his chest for Adoration Time is precious. ❤️ Blessings to you All!!!

[@IMB322]

He is just adorable ❤❤
