I work in the city. When I mentioned that I had chickens and that we had them for the eggs, this woman wrinkled up her nose and said, "Why in the world would you want to EAT an egg that came right from the chicken?!?!"
Where did she think eggs came from?
I get this one a lot too: "Aren't you eating their babies?" I try to explain that there are no baby chicks inside. And when I say that I don't have a rooster so I can't have chicks, then they want to know why my hens lay eggs when there is no rooster.
