My sister who knows nothing about chickns even though we have had them for years just said this in response to me reading this forum, 'Roosters lay eggs right?'

I forgot to mention she is 16.

From the three year old I babysit.

"So your chicken that lays blue eggs is blue and there are brown chickens that lay brown eggs and pink chickens that lay pink eggs and rainbow chickens that lay rainbow eggs. They are protected by the UNIVERSE."

I was like "It doesn't work that way, sorry "

"So rainbow chickens lay pink eggs? "

"Not quite..."

She likes to talk about how the universe is down below the earth's surface. XD

My chickens got a "birthing coach" when they first started laying. Mr. Feathers spent a lot of time pacing the nest boxes, nesting in them and singing the song to the girls. He'd also hover over them until they laid. It was cute.

My SIL who eats only organic foods refused to eat our chicken's eggs this weekend because they are not truly "happy, healthy chickens" she said and "the eggs look a little funny." I explained that our chickens have only been laying for about a month, plus they free range all day from sun up to sun down, eat organic layer food, and have access to all the bugs, grass, worms, etc that they could find, plus they have a safe chicken coop that is locked up like Fort Knox at night, how could they not be happy and healthy? She replied, (and I am 100% serious), "Well, they have to worry about predators all day long, and that is really, really stressful, especially since they have already lost 3 of their friends." OMG We have lost 3 chickens to predators, BUT she thinks they'd be happier in a larger chicken house with limited access to the outside!!!???!!! Wow!!

Wow. My chickens worry more about chasing butterflies than they do predators sometimes, most of the time....especially when butterflies are around...

I've been asked if the green eggs are green inside.

Maybe they believed the story: "Green Eggs and Ham"!

She needs a birthing coach?

My hens do!

The rooster sits in the laying box with them and "coos" to them.

I have a hen that made some weird noise and this woman said that when a hen sounds like a rooster, it means my wife/husband is going to die. She literally chased it with a machete! The worst part is, im not even married -_- atleast the hen lived though lol.
