A man in a patterned shirt and brown pants tends to white chickens in a dimly lit barn on a farm in Auburn, California, 1939. Shot on 8mm film, the footage captures the man moving among the birds, offering ration as they peck at feed on wooden perches. The grainy, warm-toned visuals evoke a nostalgic, documentary-style look of mid-20th century rural life. This vintage home movie offers authentic archival footage of farm animal care during the 1930s.
