Ming – So THAT’s why he’s named Whitney! I’d wondered. I’ve heard too many scary stories about Leghorn to laugh at roosters. Even the picture of mom holding him makes me nervous.

Adderall Apocalypse – I doubt Mom knows Richard Dawkins, but she DID raise four kids. From my observation, kids are a lot like farm animals and behave EXACTLY like adults. Fascinating. Being a student teacher feels like anthropology.

did your mother by any chance happen to have read The Selfish Gene by Richard Dawkins? Might have given her some insight into the “reasoning” behind the behavior of farmyard animals. lolz…

Before you get your sword, you can throw chickens. That was always fun.

Hey, if Whitney the hen can wake up one day and decide to become a rooster, Mom certainly can too! Also, anyone who may have laughed when they read about a big strong dude getting chased by a rooster, it’s scarier than it sounds! He may not weigh anything, but he bites HARD, and he jumps up so high it’s like you’re surrounded by a thousand battering wings and razor-sharp beaks. Also, Mom is hardcore! (and she doesn’t so much kick him as she does loft him away from her with her foot.)

Everytime I see a chicken I want to kick it.
Damn you Legend of Zelda, you conditioned me so well.

Awwww….thanks honey.
Now that I’ve had my fifteen minutes of fame I’ll go feed the hens and collect the eggs.
Love you!
