Dumbest Things People Have Said About Your Chickens/Eggs/Meat

[babyfoot]

I'm not upset or mad or think you're horrible, I just didn't want you to think I was mean to kids with special needs

Noooo, we didn't think that at all (at least I didn't) too much political correctness these days. We have forgotten how to laugh for fear of upsetting fragile egos

Life is too short not to laugh, learning to laugh at yourself first means you rarely take offence at jokes. After all, they are just jokes. We Scots put up with enough of them and god bless them the poor Irish have the worst of it yet they are an extremely clever nation of people.

I can't help it , I must ask about that "swimming chicken"! Is it real or a faked foto? My chickens will stand in water when it is really hot to cool their feet but won't get in if it is the least deep, and never to swim! : (

Gotta love the Scots. My husband is Scottish-American.

Us Irish are pretty bad for taking the p*** aren't we! a couple of years ago a boy from America came to our school, for the first week he thought we all hated each other, but it is only a laugh nothing personal usually. One of the best traits a person can have is to be able to laugh at themselves.

Whenever I think "Irish" I think of Danny Bhoy's teedilly dee potatoes. Lol

If bugs are eating  your lettuce, that's how you know it's safe. I tried to give someone a beautiful head of broccoli, but mentioned that they needed to wash it and check for worms. They freaked out and said they could never eat broccoli if it had worms on it. Makes you wonder if they even know it's grown in dirt

that's what my grandfather was always saying, if the worm won't eat even eat is why should he eat it! I totally subscribe o that theory.

I had a hen that I suspected was going cannibal on me. Yesterday I caught her red-handed (so to speak) and went to get the necessary bits to dispatch said hen (we have 2nd hand hens and they're older birds with bad habits to boot). One of my city friends was horrified I was going to cull her myself and started calling around to find a no kill shelter for the Hannibal hen! After she nearly ripped the comb off one bird and bit two HUGE holes in another! *sigh* The hen was dispatched humanely and went to have a nice long soak in a French Sauna (aka my best heavy French stew pot).

The other half and I are gladder each passing day we moved to the middle of no where. We didn't mean to do it, but it's the best thing we ever did.
