BYC Member Interview - thecatumbrella

[Evadig]

Nice to officially meet you @thecatumbrella - I always did wonder about your username . Your hens are beautiful, and thanks for sharing your interview!
I remember the one time we tried planting corn, it grew and grew, but never produced anything. I think it was like six feet tall at the end!

I never knew that D'uccles were gym rats & skid mark producers.

I'm glad this is the kind of knowledge I can impart on BYC.

Mine were huge on lap sitting, I would sit on the floor of the coop or run and they would all line up from my ankles to my stomach, those on the sides that couldn't get on would beak the lap sitters off. Constantly arguing to be the one sitting closest to mommy.

Stop talking me into it!
I thought my Cochin Bantams might be cuddly like the Australorps. Yeah, right. Maybe if I put some eggs in my lap and bring a broody over. I miss chicken snuggles...

It grows deceptively well, doesn't it? Couldn't wait to crack open a husk, only to find one of those miniature corns, like you'd find in stir fry.
