"No, the chickens won't eat that." Coming home to two completely bare grape vines and a bundle of sticks that used to be a kiwi.

"Don't throw those maggots out! Feed them to the chickens they'll like it."


My daughter while I was gathering eggs in the hen house during winter.

"Mommy it smells like pancakes in here! Yummy."

I love that maggot one, whenever we find a bug everyone wants to know if the chickens will eat it.

"Get Cookies her towel, I think she wants to lay her egg". Yes, in the house!!!!!

"Don't throw the banana peel in the trash.. put it in the chicken bucket!"

 

[pipdzipdnreadytogo]

"Debra Jo! Don't make me kick your feathered butt back down that driveway!"

I also never thought I'd have a hen that comes when I call her name. Or that I'd be using the phrase 'naughty girls' so much.

And then the classic:
Someone else - "That's... Cricket?"
Me - "No, that's Kate!"
