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

[Chooks n Kids]

Had a young couple come over to get some plums from my over abundant trees and he asked about buying eggs. I gave him the price and then said, "I will tell you now that the eggs may be fertilized." His response after a blank stare was "you put manure on them?" Was all I could do not to laugh, I explained about the birds and the bees or in this case the hens and the rooster, he was quite embarrassed but his wife was laughing so hard she was in tears. My husband and I had a good chuckle after they left. Sheila

That's hilarious! Sort of sweet, too. He was obviously thinking pure thoughts.

You just have to name them correctly. For instance, my two pigs were named Bacon and Sausage. My turkeys were Thanksgiving and Christmas. I don't really name my chickens, other than a few of them, but I have a friend who names hers things like Original and Extra Crispy.

LOL....I named my lambs Chop and Stew...some peeps were quite offended.

I have purchased a (retirement) house in a small town where I though they were never going to film COPS. But then NatGeo shows up: http://channel.nationalgeographic.com/channel/southern-justice/

Kind of like COPS without the Jamaican music? Or more like JUSTIFIED?

Kind of surprised that NatGeo went towards the hillbilly reality show... Wait. No, not really. A&E, History and Discovery have all gone that route and away from educational entertainment as the culture seems to be clamoring for it and away from anything, well, useful, educational or informative. (that is, unless of course, you want to learn to make hooch, gig frogs on the bayou, or bid on stuff at auction in storage lockers, airport terminals, yada yada).
Honey Boo Boo anyone? Moonshiners? Junkyard Pickers? HELP!!

p.s.
I love TN, btw. Have several friends there and visit often. So green! But I-40 through Nashville.... death defying.

Fertilized eggs.... That's the best one yet!

We (my children and I) named piglets that were bought for butchering Ham and Bacon.

The next year the pigs were named Bob and Bill, after our dentists. Never did figure that one out.....

I-40 in TN is one of the most dangerous stretch of highway in the nation, averaging 300 wrecks per day.

The lanes are narrow and trucks can drive in any of them... It's like being in a cattle chute and real easy to get boxed in by semi's. I'm sure there are a few other factors, but I just recall not knowing where in the heck I was due to being totally surrounded by VERY tall trucks
