This is Soosie. She's the brown and white speckled one, a Sussex chicken. The other golden one is waiting for Soosie to get out of the nest so she can lay an egg. Never mind there are 4 other nests she could lay in.
I've been telling people for a while that Soosie yells "HELLO" when she's laying eggs but no one seems to believe me except Adam and his friend because they once heard it too. Today I set the camera on top the chicken coop while she was in there and let the video run until she said hello. In 20 minutes time she said it 8 times. She'll sit in the nest for more than an hour and she doesn't even take any reading material in there with her.
Here she is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g6xym9XhLNw
Next I'll teach her to say "goodbye"
Our hens say "tobacco" when they lay. Maybe because Charlotte County is a big tobacco grower.
ReplyDeleteShe used to say Hello and then Help but now only hello and it's not as clear as it used to be.
ReplyDeleteYou should record "tobacco" so I can hear it. That's funny.
