Yep, my grandfather would drop whatever he was doing and kill a hen that crowed....seems the only death a crowing hen heralded around his place was their own.....
wow
old wives tale...this is kinda creepy....but obviously not true..hopefully
A crowing hen is considered to be unlucky, or foretelling of troubled times.
Grandma would say, "Whistling girls and crowing hens always come to some bad end."
A hen that took to crowing heralded a death in the owners...
i had a hen that did that as well, josephene. she looked like a rooster with her body build, and would try to crow along side the guys. she was taller then all the hens. It was weired!
ooo old wives tale??? sounds interesting!!
