Things you never said until you had chickens.......

Cooking dinner one night I needed to run to another room so I asked my teenage daughter to keep an eye on the chicken for me. With an extremely confused look on her face I came back n a few minutes later to her putting her shoes on and going outside. I asked my other daughter where her sister was going, we were both confused. A minute later said daughter is back inside saying "the chickens are fine". I burst out laughing and replied " the chicken on the STOVE!" Needless to say when cooking it is now referred to as dead chicken.

Phone call from my husband last night about 10:30 while I'm at work..... (Pigpen in the background crowing non-stop) "I think your bird is broken"
Me: "Did you give him his cashews?"
Hubby: "Seriously?"
Me: "Yes"
Hubby: "No hold on"
Wings flapping, a lot of clucking
Hubby: "Jees he's heavy"
Pigpen: "COCK A DOODLE DOO"
Hubby: "Inside voice please?"
Pigpen: "Bruck" crunch crunch crunch
Hubby: "OK now shut up"
Pigpen: "COCK A DOODLE DOO"
Hubby: "Good Lord"

lol. I've never given my chickens cashews, maybe I should try.

"Humans have it so much easier. When there's a new guy you don't have to integrate it into a flock full of angry chickens!"

( After dinner) " Does anyone want to give some of their left over corn to the chickens?"

"Come and get your bird off my carburetor so I can put the hood back on."
Said my husband after putting a new engine in his truck...
With Pigpen's help of course.
