Think its done to try and make it look smaller than it is, but they dont need the effects at all.
Correct, it's a cheapo fake tilt-shift effect intended to make it look smaller, but as someone with the eye for it all it does is remove any ability to get any scale because you have nothing to compare it to. For all I know this chicken is 3m tall and the porch is actually a train station dock.
It's a completely unnecessary addition. It's the same shit as speeding up video playback speed to make the video seem more impressive
Yes chicken nuggets come from chickens but it depends on brands and how they make them that decides taste and quality
Ngl, we have a marans hen, which is a fairly small breed, and she's at least twice the size of these.
Also, other than the mess, chickens are way better companion animals than I would have thought. They are, however, messier than any other bird I've seen, and I used to date a "bird girl" from a family that had dozens of birds in their home.
But damn, when ours decides to be cuddly, it's a very fulfilling cuddle. She'll get up on my chest like she did back when she was still smaller than one of these, nestle into my beard and just trill happily. It's fucking brutal, just absolutely heart wrenching in its cuteness.
That being said, holy shit are they bonkers. Like, they're a single minded destruction machine when they want to be (our chickens anyway), they're bossy, and it was very difficult to train the little marans hen to use a pad for pooping. Feathers everywhere, all the time.
I kid you not, I have had a duck attack my feet because I ran out of food for it.
It was an outside pet, but my buddy and me would sit in his yard while sipping some coffee, and the damn thing got used to me sharing treats. Ran out one day before it was satisfied, and she went off on my feet lol.
My ducks don't get like that over food, but my one duck named Mama Duck comes after me if I try to collect the eggs she and the other birds have laid. She's vicious. I have to put a bucket on her head when I move her off of nests because the only way she won't fight me is if she can't see me. She caught me taking eggs the other day when I thought I was being sneaky and she chased me then tried to fight me through the fence of the enclosure for half an hour.
Well I have to take the eggs because my male fertilizes them. If I leave them, they'll hatch. I am at my limit for ducks lol.
Fuck this tilt-shifted exaggeration. Nothing is fuckin genuine goddamn, anything for more clicks
They are small but no need for a tilt shift. Eggs are half size, and so are they. We had a bunch of them for years as decoration. Great pest control.
