"Be quit! Each of you pick a different nesting box and lay your eggs! OK? " ( they obeyed,... then a minute latter they went back into the same box and started to squawk again! LOL)

"If you dont came and eat I 'll come over there and roast you!"

"Come on pretty babies, (patting my lap) come sit with Mama"

To my husband "Did you give the girls some loving today?"

"Such pretty wattles and comb"

I got my first chickens last April and never thought I would love them as I do. I call them my babies and when I sit in my chair in their run, they will take turns jumping on my lap. Sometimes, I'll have as many as four juggling for position. I love them and want everyone to love them like I do. My husband is slowly coming around. He'll now let them jump in his lap and rub them. I'll make a certified chicken man of him before too long. Oh, he does scoop their poop and collect the eggs when I have to work.

He's always saying:

"Stop pecking my legs"

"I've never seen anything poop so much"

"Eat and poop 24/7" He says that a lot. Would make a great name for a chicken restaurant.

To Cupcake who was pecking Whatknot "How would you like me to come over there and peck you, you big bully?"

"Oh mom can you make just a little bit more oatmeal for the girls??"

"*Sigh* Again?? They are going to et all of our food!"

I forgot when I was out with my chickens this morning that it's the 2nd birthday for 9 of them, so I yelled out the window, "Happy birthday Matthew, Merriweather, Runt, Red, Lucy, Cinnamon, Chipmunk, Nutmeg and Rosie!"

"Honey, if I do the dishes can we talk about getting some ducks?"

We talked, but I think I might have to do dishes duty a few more times to seal the deal.
