THis is so exciting. I keep saying that, but it is! i keep thinking of all the wonder we would miss without being chicken people!!! Can't wait for pictures, Steve!

Steve, you have to whistle and chirp to them, it motivates them. I used an old Audubon bird call and it really did make them try harder!

No, it is true, if you whistle or chirp, cheep to them, it gets them going!!

Yep, you will look and sound like an idiot, buy hey, they chickies won't tell on you!!

My wife will think I finally went over the edge.

 

[Daycare Mom]

Maybe Judy should video tape you cheeping and post it on youtube for us all to enjoy?!!!!

 

[Happy Chicken Mama]

It true!

Talk to them! Heck sing to them!

By the way... you have gone over the edge for sure.

Don't worry it is infectious and your wife will soon join you for sure.

I mean you are standing there talking and chirping at a bunch of eggs right???

Then you are running to your computer to report...

And then going right back to talk/chirp some more!

Ain't life grand?

They'd be putting me in a padded room if that were to get aired.


Think I better hide the recording device to be safe.

Maybe you can get Judy to do it instead? Besides, they would probably like her voice better anyway?

I already asked her......she just looked at me and laughed.....I know that laugh. She uses it to pull my leg to.

Wonder if I could just turn on the stereo so they could hear some music.
