Dumbest Things People Have Said About Your Chickens/Eggs/Meat - Part 2 : Chicken Boogaloo.

What's this i hear about this thread previously going in the wrong direction?? Just curious/snoopy

Mostly there was some bickering about something that wasn't exactly about something that stupid people have said about chickens, eggs and whatnot.  The Mods felt like it had lost its way of mocking stupid people and those that choose to remain to be ignorant.  You can go back to the first page of this thread to find the link to the old closed thread.  

I see that now...
Good to see a new thread like this though

Sold 2 dozen eggs to a co-worker of my husband's. The guy looked at the eggs and said in disbelief, "They look just like grocery store eggs." Husband replies, "Of course they do, how else would eggs look?"

Expecting eggs to be a differnt have or something? I just sold a dozen of square eggs last week just joking...

Can't wait till the EEs I'm getting start laying eggs!

The thing is, each carton had at least one blue egg from an Easter Egger!

A new "city" egg buyer of mine was shocked to see white, tan and brown eggs in her carton.
She said "I thought you farmed organically"!
I said, "yes, we do".
The poor woman was under the assumption that only brown eggs were organic.
I had to spend 10 minutes answering her questions and we will see if she becomes a repeat customer.

So my neighbors, who apparently raised chickens where they used to live, are convinced I need a rooster to get eggs. When my neighbors little girl came over and asked where my rooster was. I told her I didnt need one to get eggs. She comes back the next day saying her mommy said I need one to get eggs. I cant wait until I get my eggs(which should be any day now) so I can be like "Hah!". Because I'm sure theyre thinking I wont get any eggs without that rooster. I mean I know I was never that educated with chickens until I decided I wanted to raise my own. Which I researched for months beforehand, and am still learning new things everyday. But I guess you just expect someone who raised chickens themselves to have some basic knowledge.

Can't blame them for that sort of thinking, but for having chickens before it seems sort of silly to think that way

Both of my parents thought that roosters would increase egg production... guys, the only reason egg production increased was because we were going out of winter!

My grandmother and others are convinced I need to put wooden eggs in he coop because they areeating eggs. I tried that before and chooks were too smart, kicked he wood eggs outside I'mnotgonna tell her that the only real "cure" for egg eating is to cull. She already wants to eat them
