Most of my friends kinda figured me for getting a "weird" pet so it didn't phase them. They are illegal here so some folks are shocked that I would break a law, but not that I'd want chickens. I'm not the law breaking type. I love chickens though so most folks were like, "Oh yeah, 'bout time"
I have one friend who said, "What if they poop on you." I thought that was a very silly question. I mean what if her huge dogs poop on her? You wash it off and move on, that's why I have soap and warm water. *shrug* Also they never have. I think they hold it while I'm holding them. They always go when I put them down.
That same friend hates eggs though. She says, "An egg is a chicken's period" which is true I guess, but they are amazing. Oh that's also why no one was phased by me getting chickens, my favorite food is eggs. Prepared any way. Everyone knows that because it comes up in my Primary class I do at church a lot and it's odd so they remember.
I want to try duck and quail eggs now.
