Have you ever wondered how a hen can lay an egg every day?
Poll: Why raise backyard chickens?

it seems to me that it's mostly lack of common sense for the silly ones... and thoughtlessness for the mean and well... thoughtless ones...

 

lately, i've been asked some peculiar questions:

 

i heard a chicken is born with all the eggs it will ever lay in it's life... so how many does it lay, 30 eggs? 40?  

 

really?? they have that many eggs? where do they keep them all... how do they fit?

 

how can you tell that one is a rooster?  (asked while he's flapping vigorously and ... crowing)

 

but that's a rooster too, won't they kill each other? (asked while they are cheek to cheek eating watermelon) oh, so they are brothers then? 

 

i thought you're not supposed to give them calcium supplements, because they'll die from mercury poisoning.

 

and finally, someone who must have googled chicken basics asked me of my then 12 week old birds, "so, are you getting pretty blue eggs?"

It's so much funnier when they think they're saying something smart.

"Are those small eggs you have mutan!?" 

 

"Do your chickens have names?..... okay I'll take some eggs."

 

"You show chickens?!"

It's the shape that makes the breed, and the color that makes the variety.

My neighbor, who I gave eggs to regularly for two months, saw me feed my girls some scrambled eggs and decided that she couldn't eat them anymore since my girls are cannibals!

Ahhhh, the good ol' days of chicken farming. *Sigh* I miss my girls...

I started raising chickens when I was around 11, buying my own chicks. My friends would say "Eeew!! Why would you want a nasty old chicken??".

"Because I find them interesting. I listen to you talk about boys, your pets, and how annoying your brothers are, so why can't you listen to me talk about my chickens for a bit??"

"Your not gonna eat them, are you?"

"Only if it comes to that." *Said friends walk away, thinking I'm cruel.*

"Whatever. Geuss I'll be keeping that kitten I was gonna give you."
