The conversations I have with Betty my Orpington hen never cease to amaze me.  Today this is what I got from her while collecting eggs!

Betty:  You know it’s kinda rude to come out here and steal my eggs every day.  I work really hard for those. 

Me:  Well Betty that’s your job to make eggs, and it’s my job to collect them.  

Betty:  I want a new job one that is appreciated more!

Me:  Well Betty you’re a chicken so there is two options for you. Laying Hen or meat chicken.  You pick. 

Well Betty couldn’t get the words out fat enough that I can have all the eggs always and she will never stop laying eggs for me!
