Funniest Things A City Slicker Has Ever Said To You?

I just used this as a joke and asked my mom why we don't bleach our eggs. I said "because different breeds lay different eggs, if we wanted white eggs we could just get our own white layers. I said "isn't that so obvious?" She said "NO"

That's like saying that brown cows give chocolate milk...

"White layers" means chickens that lay white eggs, at least that's what I meant.

I realized...I was responding to your mom's "NO."

I wish there was a sarcasm font. It would make things clearer.

how about during deer hunting season my friend was out in his pasture and a guy from NJ said I just shot the biggest buck (deer) my friend went to where the guy was pointing ans saw one of his best milking cows lying dead on the ground.

My daughters horse was out in its pasture and our new neighbors came outside and the father told his boys pointing at the horse saying that is was the biggest black lab that he has ever seen.

I'm confuzzled. Were you saying what I said was like saying brown cows give chocolate milk (which I know isn't true), or what my mom said? Just asking.

When I was nine, I put an egg in a cup of warm water to have it hatch. I also put it on a warm, wet washcloth under a light. Forgive me, I live with city slickers, the only country people I talk to on a daily basis are my brother (who loves chickens) and you guys.

When I was 13 I raised 10 ducklings, that had been abandoned by their mother, for a family friend that had a farm.
I spent every single day for 3 months of summer vacation with my ducklings. I talked and read to them and they followed me around and sat in my lap.
We had a visitor to our house and I wanted to show off my ducklings. She said after watching them cuddle with me, "When do you plan on butchering them? I'd help if you gave me a couple."

I'm sure they were eventually butchered when they went back to the farm, but really do you ask a 13 year old when they are planning on killing their pet?

Now when my friends ask me when I'm butchering my pet chickens to eat, I tell them as soon as you kill your dog and eat it.

Wow, that's ridiculous. When I hatched chicks for the science fair, one woman asked me "WHEN ARE YOU PLANNING ON EATING THEM?" I was only in third grade at the time. Really do you ask an 8 year old when they will cull their chicks?
I keep poultry mainly for pets, but I do enjoy their eggs and might someday show them in 4-H, especially if I get peafowl. I've heard Mallards, Favorelles, and Silkies can be good ornamental breeds too. I don't know about my RIWs though.
