So a year ago I knew very little about chickens. I grew up in Southern California the only thing I knew was that buying free range eggs in So Cal was ridiculously expensive. When I moved to Montana I began learning a lot and was very excited to raise my own chickens. When I learned about easter eggers and green eggs i was super excited. One day at work I was talking to a guy that grew up in Montana and said he had family that raise chickens and was telling me all the reasons I shouldn't do it. When I told him how excited I was to get chickens that would lay green eggs, he laughed at me and said well that doesn't take anything special its just what you feed them. I said "What?" He said ya its just what you feed them, all chickens lay all colors you can tell their diet by what they eat. I said no, its linked to the breed of chicken. He said "There are different breeds of chickens?"
Now, like I said I didn't know much a year ago and I don't expect people too know anything. I am happy to share my limited knowledge, but...what drives me nuts is people making crazy statements as if they know and even trying to give themselves credibility by referencing experience that they don't really have.
Ugh this is what drives me crazy. Nothing wrong with a lack of knowledge. What makes someone dumb is when they pretend to know something they dont and argue it with people who actually do know or else refuse to learn because they would rather stay in the dark. Why!?! It just makes you sound stupid so why do so many people do it?
