I hate chickens!!!

[welsummerchicks]

I know my roosters won't start getting vicious for a few months, but I've bought a flak jacket and a helmet, shin guards and steel capped boots. I plan to have my guts torn out at some point or another.

There is so much baloney on the internet. Something doesn't become true just because it is repeated a lot of times.

i know... stupid people hate ALL animals. Chicken Run is a good movie that shows that God created all animals for at least 1 reason.

What I found out this year is how many people are afraid of chickens. Most friends of my daughter, and some other quest refuse to even touch them. Even if I hold them. I never realized how a 4 lb feathered creature can send grown adults running away in terror. I hear "I hate chickens" all the time too. I guess I have fear of some animals, like wild bears, but come on....these are chickens! I am almost starting to think I should just carry a chicken around instead of pepper spray, to warn off dangerous people.

I got an "eyeful" from someone yesterday when they were told we had chickens. You know, they look at you like you're crazy for having chickens, and judge you. Hey, not everyone will appreciate raising chickens, we get that.

It's not easy to ignore ignorance.

Maybe for the chicken haters that had a bout with a mean rooster, you could casually mention that you don't need to have a rooster to get eggs. Many people can and do have a nice little flock of just hens. Of course, that will probably just confuse them.
