“This is a drum set” The chickens already knew that Maya just said it so that twitch chat would understand as they have a combined IQ of 48

So nice of Maya to feature a live performance of the chickens’ band, The Drumsticks, of their single “Eggin’ Me On,” from their debut album, _Birds of a Feather._

[@jammin2575]

Could the follow up album be “flock together”

[@LiterallyNobody0]

Danny’s response to Maya asking if this was his vision had me 💀

[@kirbybie]

shoutout to Danny’s brilliant mind for this masterpiece

[@Bustdownbones]

I've rewatched this video like 10 times for this bit alone, genius bit of editing lol

[@leemylive3594]

Loved the musical addition of siren screaming to really add to the final song

[@ironickrempt]

Siren’s silly noises in the distance 😭❤️ brilliant performance, would see in concert 10/10

[@Mayo-Lord]

She was fanbirding hard

[@takeadeepbreathin]

Either you underestimated how stupid the internet is or how stupid we are cuz this was one of the GREATEST vids I’ve ever seen on the internet and exactly why the internet was made. I loved it. You have the greatest job in the world FYI.

[@brojoe5326]

The world desperately needs more albums by the chicken band. If they need any suggestions for an album title, I recommend ‘Why we cross the road’. Also, Oliver cemented himself as lead vocalist at the end.

[@lindsayrserrano]

Band name: birds of a feather 🪶 song title: the other side 🎶

[@michaelramsey81]

I've been a huge fan of Maya and Alveus for a long time, but after this video, I was finally inspired to actually make a donation. Most worthwhile money I've ever spent. Long live the chicken band!

[@mayahiga]

Thank you so much 💓

[@shawn3595]

The chickens are so funny and cute they just smash their head against random stuff

[@Tabasa05]

Being judged by the editor for pausing and reading their chicken text they definitely wanted me to pause and read, goddamn. God bless you, Danny, they deserve their time in the spotlight. Chimkims for life🥚

[@N313GrayFox]

Title does not dissapoint. 10/10 would lose brain cells again for these cute chickens!

I had low expectations, and boy were those expectations met. 10/10 Perfect, would recommend.

[@babycthulhudreams]

My favorite part is when Siren joins in with her backing vocals. *chefs kiss*

Let's just appreciate the fact that chickens are basically mini feathered raptors

[@Todomo]

if they are mini feathered raptors then what are actual raptors? are they not also feathered and mini?

[@hippityhoppityw]

raptors were feathered and mini

[@tufab3494]

@@hippityhoppityw not all of them, but Velociraptors specifically were indeed exactly what you described

[@Dell-ol6hb]

@@tufab3494 nah all of them were feathered, I don’t even think we know of a raptor (dromeosaur) that doesn’t have feathers. You can say that about other dinosaurs families but not dromeosaurs

[@tufab3494]

@@Dell-ol6hb We have a few raptor species without any evidence of feathers, but we deduced they might have based on the others. We can't be that sure about all of them being feathered. They were spread all around the world, there's gotta be a species that lacked feathers for climatic adaptation purposes.

[@VeronikaBelskaya]

I'm not native speaker, I'm Russian. And I watch you to train my listening skills. Your way to speak is really clear for me, I understand you very well!😊😊😊 And yes, I red all that chicken stories. Because I need to train my reading skills too)))

Despite her opening disclaimer, Maya definitely had fun with this one.

9:21 I love that you can hear Siren in the background singing along lol

[@ibrazumigaming1664]

Just hand the channel over to the editor at this point, this was a visionary idea

nugget on the keyboard, siren with the background vocals and oliver as the lead vocalist went crazy at 9:45

Danny had a great idea and a fantastic follow-up w/ the actual editing. Maya had fun and the chickens did not disappoint. 10 out of 10.

Siren's backing vocals were beautiful. She needs to be part of the band now.

BEST MAYA HAS FUN FOR ONCE EVER! THAT DRUM SOLO WENT HARD i almost started moshing in my room

that drum solo into the drum duet brought a tear to my eye.

I got so excited when the goats showed up during the setup of the drums cause I knew there would be chaos lol

Loved the egg lore, also the best band ive heard in a while.

[@the.wildspark]

Siren and Oliver were absolutely amazing on the vocals. 10/10 would buy tickets for live performance.

[@LunaDavis-wo7ki]

Maya and team keep up the good fight. Yall should have a pamper day soon to end out the year and bond over some self care.

[@Crashernok]

They are professional artists, they were just laying down studio tracks. Now you just need a producer to mix it all together! Loved it, and the egg lore. What depth! 😮

[@Aurrs]

im convinced maya is just a insane person and this is her way of expressing her insanity

[@kundo9639]

Oh my God! This ist THE BEST "Maya has fun for once" video EVER!!!!!!!!!!! No idea was as successful as this, AMAZIIIIING!! The Chickens is now my favourite band ever

[@Wezzles]

Who'd have thought the chickens are musical prodigies

[@thepeterone]

Siren in the background like: "I'm the singer! It's my destiny."

[@lucal.3373]

Chicken lore went hard. One of my fav videos so far

[@retrohero5475]

One of the other labels i often find misleading on chicken is usually something along the lines of "vegetarian fed" or "vegan diet" which sounds good or whatever...except chickens are omnivores and they love to root around for bugs in stuff. If a place can legally garuntee that a chicken was fed 0 meat, that bird has probably never walked on grass before.

[@Chaotic_stegosaurus]

I really hope you do make band shirts, I would legit buy one

[@jpalma9795]

Siren yelling in the back was kinda like a cherry on top 😂

[@DivineFlame7]

I was thinking you could put the keyboard under the drum set. Maybe they step on it while playing the drum set. Also, I've been buying eggs with that label ever since you mentioned it in a stream 😊

[@nicko2438]

Maya: Did you guy’s like Siren’s cameo? *second and a half of silence* Siren: Hiii!

[@mooonlightrose]

Nugget is a multitalented queen, and siren DESPERATELY wanted to be on vocals but Oliver showed her who the *real* vocalist in the band was

[@Ben-gh9kg]

The chicken lore was absolutely worth reading, maybe I'm a time wasting goober but now I'm a goober with chicken lore and that makes me a special goober

[@willythewyno]

I laughed so much while watching this. 10/10 would buy a tour ticket

[@lgnoramaLama]

The end felt like a fever dream😆 Also: Siren as lead singer! And you should probably get some helping humanoid hands and stabilize the drums 👍😁
