My husband who wasn't keen on getting chickens, but keen on using them for dual purpose has changed his mind.
His Buddy," Man,when y'all gonna eat one of them chickens?" Husband," Dude,we're not. It's really peaceful to sit and watch them, esp when the rooster gets after a hen!"
So now, he and his buddies sit on the porch and watch Foghorn "get tail" in the early evening and think it's better than t.v.
Me," Mama! I think Molly is going into laYbor! She's been in and out of the hen house for a couple of hrs.". later that day when I called her back, " No egg from her today Mom, she was having Braxton Chicks contractions."
My BFF calls me up and says "Girl, I bout ran off the driveway into the ditch!" Me, " OMG! You ok?" Jess," yeah I'm ok, but that chicken who jumped up on my seat while I was driving is being plucked right now!" a hen had gotten into her car and about scared her to death driving down their long country driveway. I bout wet my pants LMAO
