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

[7 Biddies]

I'd have to bite my tongue over that one... It would be so easy to blurt out, "Then, why don't you close your eyes!"

Or, move it closer to her yard and tell her you're blocking your view of her unsightly yard and garage ... her comment gave you the idea.

I ended up with a double yoker one day while a friend of mine was over, the egg was significantly larger than the other eggs I gathered, (mind you I gather every day and she knows this) she stated "well maybe that one is just farther along!" ... I had to inform her that the egg shell does not grow with the chick.

This is one of funniest so far.

Quote: Last three times I had a broody sit we had 100% hatch rate so all ours are fertilized too I guess. My sister in law keeps hens also but she refuses to let me give here a rooster to help protect the hens as she will not eat fertilized eggs. Her flock has been decimated three times in three years by birds of prey or foxes or even her own dogs got to them once. She has asked for some of my chicks instead of having a Rooster to fertilize her hens' eggs . Nope!

This isn't

related but it drives me insane:
"Uncrustables"

when my parents told me about it I thought they were lying. I just couldn't believe that people buy this! It's packaged pb&j!!! And it's FROZEN!!! Are human beings incapable of spreading peanut butter and jelly on two pieces of bread and slapping it together?!?!? Ooooh and then you have to use a knife to cut the crust off oh the horror! It's impossible!!

! Quick, give something packaged, frozen, and filled with who knows what before I hurt myself on the pointy butter knife!!
I lost my faith in humanity a long time ago....

get this I saw an ad awhile back for tubes of "drinkable" yogurt that was frozen and they advertised to put them in a lunch box next to your lunchmeat sandwich to keep it cool during the day and it would be thawed out by lunch. My thought was why not freeze the boloney sandwich and then throw in the lunch box by lunch it would be thawed too....

but that would probably just be like putting lipstick on a pig and saying its beautiful now

besides why would you want to put your chickens through that kind of torture,having to live that close to that place would just be awful

The first time I heard about those, I thought I was hallucinating.

These are literally my vegetarian child's lunch almost every day. That is all they have without meat almost every single day. He can't even get the sides for the regular meal. Makes me so mad! It is ridiculous!!

Can't you pack them a decent lunch? Or do they have rules about that now?
