Holiday fun! -- What if your chickens could talk?

[Mahonri]

Shut the door, you've created a draft. You already got all our eggs, now you are disturbing our peace.

Ameraucana accent: Chilean with a hint o' British.

A.M. when I open the pen gate: YOU DIDNT BRING TREATS??? WELL.....WHAT THE HELL TOOK YOU SO LONG TO LET US OUT?!?! THERE IS NO SNOW ON THE GROUND TODAY AND YOU KNOW WE DONT LIKE TO BE SHUT UP IN THIS FENCED IN THINGY! THE WHOLE YARD IS OUT THERE COVERED IN GRITTY WEED SEEDY FASCINATING GLORY! GET UP EARLIER TOMORROW AND DONT FORGET OUR TREATS.


P.M. when I shut the pen gate:
HEY! SHUT THE darn DOOR DOOFUS! DONT YOU KNOW ITS 12 DEGREES OUT THERE!

1)OMG here comes the food lady!!

2) hmm, I don't know.....

 

[ChickenCharmer]

New York accent: (not realizing they could talk in a way that I could understand) Hey fellas, look, it's that girl again. Dang, she didn't bring scraps for us... Ah well, lets make her give us corn by crowding around her like we've never heard of the feeder in the barn. Works every time, that one.

1). Polish ladies-I'm just a little Italian-a girl, eatin' ma spagghet- why you hafta bother me, huh?
2). Geesh, can't you tell?

Polish, which originated near the river Po, south of Venice, would probably still have a faint Italian accent now that my American girls hatched in Iowa live in Jersey.

Hee hee, these are funny! I especially like everyone's take on the accents.

As it turned out, I did have to go check the girls at 1 am Christmas Day because our least dominant girl had been acting strangely before bedtime, wouldn't roost, etc. (1 am is when their timer switches their light on for laying). No one said anything in particular, but the one I was worried about greeted me right away with a cheery cluck and was totally fine. Everyone else was kind of sleepy and wondering what on earth I was doing there at that hour.
