Chicken Smell

[desertgirl]

Hello-
A collegue ad I were speaking about my getting chickens, and she was totally freaking out..."Chickens..eeewwww! They stink!Your poor neighbours!" (I have already spoken with my neighbours, who are totally cool,by the way). I explained that chickens are just like any other animals...if you keep them clean, they aren't going to stink. What else should I tell people when they say such things?

I like "chickens are just like any other animals...if you keep them clean, they aren't going to stink." I think you nailed it.

Offer to bring a chicken for them to smell!!!

I kiss my hens. They don't stink.

Tell them that you have been selected to do research on some new variants of geneticly modified poultry that have been gene spiced with rose bushes. Like most uninformed people, They'll be more likely to belive that, than "chickens don't stink".

Sure they have an odor, but so do dogs and cats and fish and bungies and cows and HUMANS!!

Chickens don't stink, their poo does - is she saying hers doesn't?
