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

DH calling during lunch...

DH: So, what did you do during DS's nap today?
Me: Well, I had lunch and then went and chased the chickens.
DH: ... Anything else?


We just introduced three 10 week old chicks in wih our three layers last week and stirring things up a bit and getting the big girls to 'loose focus' on he newbies seems to help integration. At the very least they stop pestering the littles for a few hours.

Me: Honey, you push her vent in while I go get the prepH

Never in my life would I have thought those words would come out of my mouth... not once, not twice, but several times over the course of this chickens' prolapsed vent... the poor thing. Thankfully she made a full recovery

so i was surffing ebay and loged in and the mouse was hovringer over the bid button and Lilly decdied she wanted to eat the little green light on my mouse well some how she it the bid button but thank god I got it away from her before she commented to the order. So i had to tell my chicken not to go shopping on ebay


So I did not have to say it but can you imaging me trying to explain to a seller that my chicken put a bid on there item and not me and the chicken dose not have the money to pay for a 52.00 quiad battery. I dont think they would belive me

Mom: So did you eat lunch
Me: Yup, me and my chickens did
Mom: Whaddya mean?
Me: Well, I mean that they had some.
Mom: WHY!!?
Me: Well, I can't help it!! They just jump up and 'voila!' they have my food.
Mom: *facepalm* Maybe next time you should eat your food inside where it won't get stolen.
Me: Eh, I like eating with the chickens though
