Chicken school

There is something rather benign about Chicken keepers I always think. 5 of the 6 course students attended my first "teaching" session this evening and they were just like my "first" group from last year!,in so much as they were cheerful, informed, slightly obsessed with animals and attentive. (yes I know.........sort of mini-mes in the making!)
The session went well, (even though I forgot the coffee) and the course fees will pay for this month vet's bills and two sacks of pig food!

    As long as you're not teaching a class on chicken intercourse all will be just fine.

    I think it's a lovely name...named after the mayor of London Boris Johnson

    I think you need to teach an online class!
    I don't know all that stuff.
    Let's see... I know the beak, eye, comb, feet?

    If you were my poultry professor, I'd bring you a bag of feed in hopes I'd get a good grade.

    Randy, you are surprising me. But, this got my interest. Is there such a thing as chicken contraceptives?

    Chicken contraceptives? I was 4-H poultry resource leader for 5 years and got all kinds of strange phone calls. One was from a dog veterinarian whose office was surrounded by a creek. He asked if there was a contraceptive he could give the ducks so they didn't multiply quite so much. I suggested he could collect and dispose of half the eggs. Duh.

    With chickens it's even easier because many breeds of hens don't set on their own eggs.

    Have fun with your class. Maybe I can find some of my old 4-H information to share with you.

    Abstinence is always best. But if they used condoms, would it be sheep skin?
