[Chickadee42]

actually I do have a dumbish thing said to me.
(Kid in health class)
Him:"So you have a chicken?" (Pointing at an "all about me poster" I made.)
Me:"actually I have 5."
Him:"wow! That's a lot!"
Me:"um no it's really not. My friends have about 30."
Him".....weeeird...where do the live?"
Me"...on a busy road...?"
Him:" hmm."
Me:".....ooookaaaay...."

I posted a picture of my first eggs on Instagram and a follower commented..."wow! So do you have to take them away from your hens within a certain amount of time so they don't turn into baby chicks?"....LMAO

Unless I'm missing something her question is legit.

 

[misspnme]

It's funny because she asked even tho she knew that I don't have a rooster to fertilize them.

That's the problem with forums, you can't tell tone. But believe me I wasn't trying to be rude to him and he didn't seem offended or anything.

Lead your sister to the computer google battery hens and show her where store bought eggs come from and I bet she will beg to eat your eggs or swear off eggs forever. ;-)

this was me talking to a guy from church:
him: so a fertilized egg??
me:....is an egg that's fertilized?
him: so why can't you eat it?
me: it's got a baby chick inside!
him: don't they all??
me: nooo only the fertilized ones!
him: well how do they get fertilized?!
me... well you see the momma chicken and the daddy chicken.....


lol one of the funniest conversations

We eat fertilized eggs all the time. They don't actually have a baby chick in them until they are incubated by either natural or artificial means
