I loved the look on my city slicker friends faces when I told them "My chicken nipples will be here any day! Can't wait to hook them up."

Conversation:

Me: Hey Ma! I picked up some chicks today!

Ma: What?

Me: Not of the female human variety, unfortunately.

Ma: Oh no.

Me: It's okay, they were cheap...

Ma: (laughs)

"Yes---I'm aware that you laid an egg. Now shut up."

The above is said equally as often here as "Well, I guess Brenda has laid the very best egg of all chickendom again, today."

 

[SweetSilver]

"Good morning, Poopy-Butt!"

 

[JesseS]

'Please don't poop on me!'

'Can you get her off the window?'

 

[blessedchick]

...whispered to me at my Bible study, "I hope that's just dirt on your shoe" Me, "Aw! Chicken poop!"

I've had to say, "Excuse me" to my Showgirl hen, Eve, when opening the nest box door while she was in there laying an egg...

18 pages. Wow. Some of these sound very familiar. Here are a few of mine.

I say this to Dorian and Sterling, two of my roos.
"That's good boys. Let the girls eat first. You are such sweet boys."

I make sure know how pretty they are. Sterling hears...
"Sterling, you have the fluffiest pants I have ever seen! Have you been raiding MC Hammer's parachute pants?"
He's a LF Cochin.

Byron, another roo, my worst...
"I swear to gawd, if I didn't need your semen, you'd be in the freezer! Go ahead, come at me again and see who wins!"
"Byron, if you weren't so pretty... I swear..." "Bridgette, I am sorry your boyfriend is an a-hole." "Byron, she's MINE. I let you borrow her! That's it. Lets see how Milton, Lester and Beakman like their new meat."
Lester, Beakman and Milton are in a bachelor pad by themselves. Yes, I like watching the 3 of them gang up on Byron. Yeah, that's another weird one for you.

Lester and Beakman, more Beakman, insist I am their girlfriend. They pick grass for me and pace their run bok-boking at me to come get my treat from them.
"No Beakman, you eat your grass. Thanks, but I don't want it."

Chicks pecking feathers in the brooder...
"Stupid chicks are eating each others butts again!"

Said while de-pasty butting a chick.
"Dewey, get the phone. I have poop in my hands."

I am a bit of a germaphobe since getting the chickens. I must have gloves to clean the nest boxes out.
"I am not knowingly sticking my hands in chicken poop, accidentally while clean the coop is okay."

I have 3 cockerels running free range and fending for themselves...
"Boys! Stop molesting each other!"

Everywhere I go, everything I see can be turned into a coop... Everything.

"Dewey, did you take a vacation day for the chicken swap? If not, you are skipping work."
"I am going to Maryland next month." "What for?" "More chickens and to sell some." "Can't you do that here?" "No."

"Yep. I paid $400 for 5 chicks. Yes, CHICKS."
