"Mom, do I talk about chickens too much?"
"Um, just a bit."
"Oh. Well, it seems like I can't find anything else to talk about!!"

Hi yo Silver - AWAY! What an image: Puddin Fluff riding over the hill on a chicken.

Zia flew up to my shoulder Sunday. I put my arm out so she wouldn't be so close to my face and she walked to my upper arm. Yue then landed on my forearm.

I am QUITE sure I never said "What DO you girls want??" while looking like a falconer with TWO not so falconish looking birds on my arm before I had chickens.

"Why is there an egg in my pocket?"

I forgot to put the egg in the fridge after checking for eggs, so when I got to the grocery store and went to pull out my money I found the egg...lol.

And then you have to explain that:
No, you were NOT responsible for any eggs missing from cartons in the cooler!
Make sure you only put blue or green eggs in your pocket (*), I've never seen them for sale at a store

(*) Actually, I advocate NO eggs in the pocket. Too easy to forget or break.

Yea, boy, I wish stores sold colored eggs!!!!

Me: Mom! I think Violette wants to lay eggs on the roof again!
