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

[gailaferguson]

Isn't it hysterical that people can be sooooooo closed-minded? You should ask your co-worker if she thinks there's a special chicken that lays the special cartons they come in.
You touched a chord in me though when you said you'd like to quit your job, become a pioneer woman and never have to leave the house............... that sounds like something I'd say! lol....... good luck with that!

[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]My mom used to have some funny ideas, too. In order to get me to go to bed, she'd tell me that only the sleep you get before midnight counts. I asked, "Then, why don't people go to bed at 3pm in the afternoon?" Frustrated, she'd walk away, scratching her head, and muttering, "I don't understand it. It always worked when my mother told it to me."[/FONT]

My mom has some real odd ideas, I figured out it was common for her brothers, sisters and their kids have odd ideas, also so it's a family affair, one was My mom told me I couldn't use my last name instead of my first name because there was a law against it, or some lame excuse like that I simply stated it was my LEGAL name since it was on my birth certificate, and asked her why her oldest sister's husband and their youngest son both went bu their middle names then? She had no clue what to say then. One of her sisters and her husband son and daughter-in-law didn't like the idea of me going to college, and told me I should work at the local factory where they live (I had already applied and they turned me down for a job and in the form letter it told me I could re-apply in five years) because I would make more money working there. I asked you mean someplace who won't hire me will pay me not to work there and I can make more money NOT working there than getting a degree and then a job??????? Morons are everywhere and they breed.

Let me know if you figure out a way to pull that off. I sure wish I could and, although I know I'd eat, I haven't figured out how to pay the mortgage.

I'm still stuck on "One of her sisters and her husband's son and DIL didn't like the idea of me going to college". Huh? 1) Why on earth not; did it make them feel threatened?, and 2) what business was it of theirs? Geez. Families!!!

"Four bantams?? Why do you need so many chickens?!!!" a quote from a friend of mine's parents.

Lol I had someone ask me if I feed my bantams more food if they will grow to regular size. I said no they are a smaller breed...he says why? are they real chickens?

So are poodles not real dogs like a doberman?

Lol! Not if you don't feed them a lot I guess.

One of my chickens laid a soft shelled egg. I picked it up, and took it, along with the regular eggs, to show my "partner in chickenry". I held out the soft egg, flat on my palm. He looked at it, and said, "That one has just been laid! It's still soft!" I have to admit, I had a very hard time not laughing my tail off.... I just explained that the chicken got in a hurry, and the egg didn't finish.
