Getting the flock out of here - a diary of a crazy chicken man

[LowerBamaMama]

As white trash tend to be undereducated and therefore can only hold menial tasks, the terms are synonimous. I have seen my share throughout the usa in oz there are bogans and yobbos. Bogans are lower socioeconomic class while yobbos are loud and obnoxious. A bogan can also be a yobbo. A hick is a person who may lack social skills because they are from the bush In British English there is the word yokel which has much the same pejorative overtones.

I feel like I have caused the conversation to degrade lol So... How many chickens breeds do you have now in the GTFOH projects?

I found a few Ameraucana Roos among the 60 unsorted birds that were not legbanded by Dominic due to his drunken walk-out.

I will throw one in with a few leghorn girls when I am there for another project

That reminds me of an old Johnny Horton song - "The Same Old Tale"

One of the verses goes:

"You know why ham is so high, only two hind legs on a hog that's why. Cross it with an octopus and ham will come down, it'll be hog in the middle and ham all around."
