Next up...watch a chicken pass through a human's digestive tract. Seriously, this was fascinating. Interesting how dirt and small rocks serve as way to pulverize and digest food. I always wondered if birds injest dirt and sand as they eat. Nature is so incredible if you just pay attention.

This video is by far the best at explaining the digestive system of a chicken. Thank you for the upload.

3:45 This definitely gives some insight into an old adage my mother used when I was younger and refused to let go of anger or was pouting about something. She would say “what’s wrong, have you got something stuck in your crop?”

[joelbruneski]

Very well done.
I'm a nursing student and small farmer and am surprised at how similar this is to humans (minus the crop and a few other things), even down to the hormones used.

I thought this was a meme, but I'm still satisfied with my new knowledge of the avian digestive system

Always wondered exactly how a gizzard worked, ever since I was a kid and read that dinosaurs had them and swallowed stones.

Im watching this video while chicken is in my digestive system 🤣

[cristsan]

Fun facts, the gizzard when cooked nicely, it taste better than the chicken meat.

So friggin fascinating. (I tried to use a respectful scientific term) 😂
With how much work my hens do to provide delicious eggs for us, I wish I could send them to a chicken spa.. for those tired ol cloacas!

[frostgd]

This is an excellent video and you guys have my highest respect for showing the entire process in a very detailed and easy to understand manner but this is one of the most randomly recommended videos I ever got. I really don't need to know this Youtube 😭
