Have you noticed that a lot of old saying refer to chicken keeping?

[mrbstephens]

How many can you think of? This is what I have;

"Feeling cooped up."

"Flying the coop."

"Don't count you chickens before they've hatched."

"Will always come home to roost."

"Layed an egg." (referring to passing gas

)


Anyone else???
