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

[7 Biddies]

Or maybe I should accept I am a little bit crazy about my chickens and I am happy about it.

NOW you've got the right idea. If being *normal* means buying nasty, filthy, hormone, chemical and antibiotic laced, inhumanely produced eggs from a grocery store, count me PROUDLY among the crazy! They can call me what they want but, as they say in the mountains, "Just 'cuz a cat has her kittens in an oven, it doesn't make 'em biscuits".

Ahhhh, the good ol' days of chicken farming. *Sigh* I miss my girls...
I started raising chickens when I was around 11, buying my own chicks. My friends would say "Eeew!! Why would you want a nasty old chicken??".
"Because I find them interesting. I listen to you talk about boys, your pets, and how annoying your brothers are, so why can't you listen to me talk about my chickens for a bit??"
"Your not gonna eat them, are you?"
"Only if it comes to that." *Said friends walk away, thinking I'm cruel.*
"Whatever. Geuss I'll be keeping that kitten I was gonna give you."

Everyone gets tired of me talking about my chickens too.

Tsk tsk, I know.

"Will you ever stop talking about chickens?"

People always wonder why I'm so.... strong. I tell them I don't go to the gym, I do chicken work. Of course they start gasping.... cheerleaders

11 year old girls suck. My best friend when I was 11 always told me "I think it's SO cool that you have chickens" then behind my back said "Ewww, did you know she has CHICKENS?"

Most pre-teen to teenage girls (in the general public, not here) SUCK. Truthfully, I DON'T CARE ABOUT WHO YOU HAVE A CRUSH ON!!!!! That is why I have my chicken friends here....

I think I just met my new best friend. My views are the same.

Added: I recall being at the fair and my friends came over. I walked them around the poultry barn and said

"Oh look, he's GORGEOUS!"....
"Who? Who? Where?"

"The rooster."

So why are chickens so gross just being themselves when "Cute little bunnies" eat their own poop sometimes?

In the 8th grade, I had one of the girls(cute) come up to me and said,
Her:I'll go out with you if you give up your obsesion for chickens and become a NORMAL teenage boy.
Me: Nope, if normal means talking about your parts and having you know what before your married, i dont think so.
Her: Fine you 4 eyed loser.

Some girls are complete jerks(not the girls on here)

Actually this friend had a pet bunny that ran around her house and pooped and peed all over, and she never cleaned it up.

That was the point when I realized that she was the crazy one. She said I was INHUMANE for keeping my bunnies in a hutch (they actually figured out how to open the doors and were yard bunnies for a year or two. We noticed a lot of oddly colored wild bunnies the next year....

I would never give up my obsession for chickens. And how rude.

Back then when practically everyone had farms in the US... she would have most likely not said that. Just saying, she'd be the one collecting eggs from the coop.

Just remember everyone that on 12/20/12 when the world as we know it (all digital) comes to an end, we will be Kings/Queens because we have the food in our back yards and know how to get it.

My hubby is a firm believer that we will suffer a major solar flare and all digital/electronic items will be fried and of no use. So all those that live and breath by electronics will be lost.
