HA!
I have a few pullets FINALLY coming into lay. One, a BO, just laid her first egg three days ago. I knew it was her because I didn't realize anyone was laying when I opened the nest box lid, and boy... did she let me have it. It was the ANGRIEST, most SHOCKED "I can't believe you LOOKED in here" ba-gawking one could imagine.
Today, I went out to check the box several hours ago and noticed her missing. I knew better than to open that darn lid for fear of getting chicken cussed again.
BUT, hours later, assuming she HAD to be done, I did it again. Opened the lid to find her and another pullet in the box. Got a silent stink eye (all that I've ever gotten before out of ANYONE else) from the one pullet, but that same BO just chicken cussed me out again... for a GOOD long time!
Baw-gaaaaaaaaaaaaaawk ba-gawk ba-gawk BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAW-GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAK, on and on...and on again.
Can't help but giggle...
She's a vocal, opinionated thing...and boy, can she give a good cussin'! I think she's called me brand new creative names I've never been called before!
