What a neat idea! Too bad I can't whistle. I've been trying to figure out something to make them come when called. If it is not treat time of day, most of them don't come when I call.

I can't whistle either, but mine come running when I pull in the drive, or walk out on the back gate. No calling/whistling required

I think it's because USUSALLY the only time I visit them during the week (since I'm gone to work all day) when I do come to see them I always bring their daily dose of BOSS. They just get dissappointed on my days off when I spend more time going in and out.

You put your eating eggs in the carton pointy side down (out of habit). Yes, I JUST did this.

I do that too, and I've never hatched an egg!

BYC just rubbs off on ya I guess.​

I posted this in the you know you've gone country when... thread but I can see it goes here too.

You might be a crazy chicken lady...

When you just learned that you are the talk of the entire southern town and that they regularly have discussions about you at the local restaurant. I'm told those discussions go something like this:

Jed: "Have you been down Field Station? You know over there by the mill? The old (name of farmer who built the house) place? Unbelievable! Those crazy yankees who’re liv’n in that house put a chicken coop in their front yard. Why if old (name of farmer who built the house) knew this he'd roll over in his grave. I declare, no one puts a chicken coop in their front yard and those people have gone and put two in their front yard!"

Wilber: “Yeah, I saw ‘em an you know what else I seen? That yankee lady goes out and sits in the run with the chickens. She’s in there everyday, just a pett'n and talk'n to ‘em like theys yung’ns. One day I even saw a chicken sitt’n on her head.”

Yep, gone country and and southern, and crazy over chickens all at the same time :-D

How about if before shutting off the coop light at night you play 'Red Light-Green Light' with the light switch until everyone's found a good place to roost? SO GUILTY!

when you dh calls you at work to say he thinks your house hen/pullet just laid her egg in her dog pen. when you tell him it is ok to take it out and he says 'you can do that when you get home, you love doing that!'

and your reply is 'it is safe to take it away from her. but you'll get a nasty glare from her if you don't give her a praise while getting it out of there!'

he's been freaked out hearing that a hen/pullet can growl when you go for their egg!
