Things you never said until you had chickens.......

me: hey, smell this baby chick.
Friend:What? no!
Me: they smell so good though! *puts nose in chick fuzz and smells*
Friend: fine. *smells chick*
Friend (after smelling chick): not bad!


Anyone else like baby chick smell? I don't know if its because I associate it with happy memories from when i was a kid or what, but I love it! am I a weirdo?

Okay, this one usually happens every morning:

*I just came down from my room, and it's in the morning

Me: I'm starving
Mom: Well, get something to eat. You wanna an egg?
Me: Oh, yea!! I'd love an egg!!
Mom: Well, sit down and I'll make you one
Me: Oh, Mom, don't make the egg yet.
Mom: Well, why not?
Me: Because I have to go out with my chickens
Mom: Oh, I thought you said you were starving
Me: I did
Mom: Well, then sit down and eat!!
Me: No Mom!!! I have to do my 'kids' before eating!!
Mom: *sigh* Alright. Whatever

Me: "You don't know where the cats' tongues have been and you still let them lick you."
Brother: "Touche'."

I can tell you EXACTLY where the cats' tongues have been and they sure wouldn't be licking MY face.

Why?"
"Because they just sit out in the rain. I don't know why they don't go in their warm area."
"*rolls eyes* whatever.

Yep. Big rain last evening. 7 of the 12 are outside and 6 are too stupid to come in. First time they were out in rain. I don't know if they were just confused or what but they sure did not look happy. They went in when the rain let up for a short time but I had to individually pick them up and put them at the top of the chicken ramp. Hopefully they will follow Andromeda the next time!

My B-I-L and nieces came for a rare visit Saturday. I was sitting on the grass in the outside run in my jeans with an ~8 week old Cubalaya on my knee. She left and my 19 Y/O daughter saw the wet chicken poop on my knee.

Her: "EWWWWW!"
Me: "It's only chicken poop, just need a big leaf to get it off"
Me, not finding a leaf: "Or a small rock"
Flick!

Me (to a coworker): "Want to see pictures of my chickens?"

Co-worker: "Uh...okay." (Really, what else was she going to say?!)

Me: "This is Albert....this is Mimi....this is Pedro....this is Amelia... (on and on)..."

Co-worker: Silence
