Yeah, but where I live, even the meal worms cost an arm and a leg..I just can't win ! LOL but the frenzy that incurs is well worth the $$$

That they didn't want any of my lovely duck eggs casue they'd heard that duck eggs taste like mud.    Not true of sweet domestic duckies on a grain based (not snail and algae based) diet.

Have you tried ordering them on Amazon, free shipping?

Too bad for her then!!  I would much rather eat an egg right out of my chickens butt the from the store where they have been sitting for a month.  You should show her a video from a nasty battery hen house and show her what ewwwwwww really is!!  I know mine are free range and what they eat and they are treated well.  Some people are just so dumb. I can't wait to taste the first egg out of my girls butt!!!!  Jackie

Chickens.....In Raritan nj, in your backyard!!??  Is that even allowed??  Chickens are dirty and smell!!  They will wreck all your beautiful gardens.  Gross they smell and carry so many illnesses you will be sick!!    LOL Really people??  Its a wonder people eat eggs at all!!

I told someone their chickens were out because they were in the road.  The lady said oh well if ya hit one I guess you gotta eat it!!  OMG really people!!!!

I guess that could be construed as if they are next to the road or on the other side of it they are free for the taking?????

I was sharing pictures of my chickens today, naming each one and talking about their personalities, and after I'd already explained that we keep our chickens for eggs, I got asked:

"But if you name your chickens, doesn't that make it harder to eat them?"

I wouldn't know... since they're laying birds.

Another conversation I have a lot is,

Them: So do you eat them?
Me: No, they're laying birds.

Them: What's a laying bird?

Me: A bird that lays eggs?

Them: So you can't eat them?

Me: Well, you could, but they don't have as much meat on them as a meat bird...

Them: What's a meat bird?

Me: *facepalm*

At the County Fair one year a bunch of kids set off my noisy Booted Bantam.  I was whistling to her, since that usually makes them shut up.  Someone came up and asked me what I was doing.  I said that the whistling helps calm them down.  Of course they say, "Oh, well then here:  *loudest and most high pitched whistle you could possibly imagine*"  Of course that set the whole barn off!  The person just said "Noisy animals, huh?" and walked off.

wow, some ppl are stupid.
