Same here, I did a whoa Nellie, back up and read that again. :haha:
He usually uses that expression referring to some combination of the three females in the house. To be fair, he has called his hens girls, but it's not nearly as often.

There are 12 nesting boxes in my coop. Invariably, at least half of those boxes will be empty, and I'll find 2-5 eggs in one or two of the boxes. This means that some hens will wait in line to use one nesting box, instead of using an empty one whenever they want.

It's a chicken thang. :rolleyes:

Thank you, I did not know that.

Yeah, I need to stop that, even with the young ladies out the house.

Super Appalachian eggs kinda sounds to me like coal tailings with a free mercury surprise, not sure about Poconos seems citified.

Catskills has been done to death, so how about South of the Border? You know, make them sound quasi-legal, forbidden fruit. Or something classy like
Griff's Hillwilliam Embryos?

BigV 03-06-2019 10:07 AM

Ugh.

No embryos, please.

xoxoxoBruce 03-07-2019 04:39 PM

V he's looking for a name for the eggs not the estate. That's firmly Grifftopia. :lol:

Gravdigr 03-08-2019 01:13 PM

Put hair on 'em and call 'em Griff's Huevos.

Whut?

Evolved velociraptors

xoxoxoBruce 03-10-2019 03:03 AM

Sure, look what they did to Newman.

Gravdigr 03-10-2019 11:02 AM

Those were body-shaming hateraptors.

SPUCK 03-18-2019 10:02 PM

We had chickens for years but they brought pound for pound the same number of rats to the scene.

Besides the rats it was really annoying that they laid only for about 6 months the first year 5 months the next 4 the next 2 the next. Freeloaders! I sent them all over to my buddies for dinner one afternoon and they never came back. Musta liked it there?

But, the rats stayed.. :haha:

xoxoxoBruce 03-18-2019 10:54 PM

Did you have a rooster to prod them? The chickens not the rats.;)

Glinda 03-18-2019 11:11 PM

Try Just One Bite rat bait. Works like a charm. Found a BIG dead Norway rat near the coop today - flung him down the hill behind the house and called it good. If another predator finds and eats its nasty carcass, so much the better. #unapologetic #survivalofthefittest
