Funniest Things A City Slicker Has Ever Said To You?

One of my favorite things to do in the whole world is let the girls go in the front yard and whatch people give them strange looks as they go by.
One time there was a group of runners going by and the lead boy pointed and yelled "Look everyone! There's a turkey!" and the proceded to yell,"gobble, gobble gobble." one of the other boys corrected him but at that point I was already bursting into laughter.
Another time a car was going buy and completly stopped right in front of me with the chickens at my feet, and aked," are those chickens?" I swear 90% of the population of Pittsburgh has never seen a live chicken in their life. yeesh.

Oh goodness......I have some "dumb-city-slicker" stories.........

My family has been very involved in one of our local fairs for at least 11 years now. This particular fair is located in a pretty urban area of VT. We show sheep and do a lot of stuff in the agricultural area of the fairgrounds with sheep, poultry, llamas, and mini horses.

My all-time favorite story happened years ago. My sister and I were in the sheep tent fitting our sheep when a teacher (it was school trip day) and her class came in...after wandering around poking at all the sheep, the teacher went over to a pen with one big sheep in it and exclaimed, "Quick everyone! Come look at this sheep's long tail"................................................Needless to say, the sheep DID NOT have a tail. It was a ram.

I've also had my llamas called emus and have been asked if they lay eggs.

I had been dealing with cattle breeding since my early teens and was a 30+ farm gal mother of five children when my citygal Aunt in law said to me ( in all seriousness) : You're a farm gal. Where is a rooster's (mating organ)?
Well, I had watched my mom clean many a chicken with corresponding biology lessons, but that subject never came up. I said I hadn't a clue but I'd find out!
So, I put on my Big Girl Pants, called mama and asked her probably the first real sex question I had ever asked her.
She calmly explained that you really don't notice it when you are cleaning a chicken because it's just an empty sack like a small bladder which balloons during a mating.
Just so you know next time you clean a roo!

My friend went with me to the feed store where I picked up some laying pellets. When we got home I had to run into the house before going out to the pens. She asked if she could give them their pellets. No problem, I told her which can they were in and went inside.

When I got outside I noticed the birds were all plastered to the fence calling to me like they do when they are hungry. When I asked Teresa if she'd fed them, she replied "No, but I put their pellets in their nesting boxes to lay on.."

I was busting up and then asked her what she would have done if I'd bought the breeding pellets??? She hit me.

We were at a friends house and my husband was telling his buddy we were going to be getting a couple male calves in the spring to raise for meat . He asked are you going to milk them ? My husband was like um no , they're boys . He still didn't understand why we couldn't milk them lol .

That is the funniest thing I've read in a while.

Had an employee and his wife move down from NYC I was driving her around in the country one day trying to help her find some land. All of the sudden she throws her hands to her face and screams,"OMG!!! Whats wrong with that dog???" I had stopped the truck because she nearly have me a heart attack and looked to where she was pointing and now crying. I say, "Nothings wrong with that dog, It's a billy goat."

Just ask him how much milk HE gives after he gives birth. Maybe he'll figure it out then.
