Thanks for making this vid, I do wish folks would tell approximately where they are, so we could judge what kind of climate and other factors they face. And, costs are always interesting to know...i.e., is it really worth it to have 3-4 hens, or must one have say 20 or 30 to make it worthwhile? As for an editing program, you can't do better than Windows Movie Maker 2.6, it's compatible with XP and with 7. I use it, and it's very easy to use.

80kms north of Sydney. Mild winters. My 4 isa browns lay an egg a day. Costs of chicken food adds up but I give away lots of eggs to family and friends, so if you sold them you would be ahead.

Our pen was all made of recycled materials, biggest cost in 50m roll (only size available for big pen) of chicken wire $250. thanks for tips. Have mac

What's the deal with the TV? Don't brainwash God's creatures, they'll want IPhones and McDonald burgers, and what if they happen to catch "How it's made: Chicken Sandwich. LoL Thanks for the upload.

@rosalindirene If no one has suggested, you can do this easily with Windows Live Movie Maker, a free download from Microsoft if you're using Windows 7.
