Dumbest question I've ever heard: was when asked for advice about an incubator

Having kept chickens for over 15 years and hatching my own eggs with a old Styrofoam Hovabator, I sometimes get asked for chicken advice. A older couple started a goat farm and had some chickens. They found a Hovabator in a garage sale and commenced to incubate some of their eggs-----no luck and the eggs went bad-----So this is where I got called in for advice, I copied the old instructions I still had from my incubator and went to see what was what. Turns out they put the incubator in an outbuilding with no heat and no water added, they also didn't have a thermometer to know where to adjust the rheostat. During the course of my visit we went out to look at their chickens coop and run, The hens all squatted for us as we came close-----Ahhh....."where is your rooster?"-------------------wait for it------------------------------"We don't have one"

That so reminds me of our oldest DD. She was 25ish when she came back home to live for awhile. We were discussing dinner and was going to get some KFC chicken(before I stopped eating KFC) when she announced she couldn't eat KFC because it was MSG chicken. My DH and I looked at her and said What? She said KFC cut the heads off of their chickens and kept them alive with tubes until they were big enough to eat! We both just sat there staring at her then looked at each other and busted out laughing. She shakes her head nonplussed and says..No really, they do that! We laughed even louder then. Who told you that? we asked. Well turned out it was a friend of hers that figured out how gullible she was. To this day, when she says something stupid, MSG chicken is always mentioned by DH or myself!

oh my gosh thats just too funny lol. I was told even though I know oh you dont need a rooster to have eggs. Thanks didn't know that already . I thought about being a smarty and saying really and here and I thought it was the rooster that laid the eggs. I was like yah but I do need a roo if I want them fertile. Oh my gosh thats so funny that they were wondering why their eggs were going bad. Hmmmm i wonder about people sometimes.
