"Oh shut up! It's just poop."

 

 Asked of me: "Why on earth are you sniffing the eggs?"

 

"Where's the feather duster? I gotta have it for the chicks!"

"Don't forget to make sure all the lights are turned on when we leave."

 

"Where's the flashlight, I don't think I locked the girls up." 

 

I'm sure there's more.

Had someone discussing their chick that had been ill but was improving and even farting.  I actually asked if chicken farts smell.   I never had a desire to know that until now....

"you can tell we are normal, most people would flip out if there was chicken poop on the couch, here, its more like "meh, get a clorox wipe".." (my son had slid on poop on the floor without anyone noticing until he sat on the couch and smeared it on the couch too....but the best part was my mom who said this before the last comment...)

 

(points finger and touches brown smudge on son's shirt) " what is THAT on your shirt??" touches, sniffs finger, jumps up running "OH MY GAWD IT'S CHICKEN ****!!!!!" (all while still dressed in her uniform *she is a cop*) LOLOLOL!!!!

 

 

"do you think the chickens will like the pink paint?"

 

 

"they just love me for my corn"

 

 

"please dont poop on me....please dont poop on me!"

 

 

"ummmm you cant eat with the chick on your shoulder....it may poop on your food and i am not wasting food so we will just scrape it off!" (ok that was a threat but it made a good argument to the kids!)
