Have you ever heard this saying when someone's not listening? "They've got two pair of socks on."
One of my grammys's favorites. Meant that the other pair of socks was stuffed in their ears....hahaha
If my kids did what you're suggesting I would tell them they are being excessively cruel to a chicken and theyd be in hot water with me. There's no way spraying a chicken is deemed acceptable in my book, they eat when they want, and I don't agree with interrupting breeding or crowing since...
