My chickens are plotting to kill me

    Didn't know where else to post this , I've become aware of a chicken plot to kill me and my family .
    It all started in February when I built a chicken run in my efforts to be more self sufficient and help prepare for z day.
    I stood proudly watching my little flock, but I noticed they would eye ball me, flash backs of pre pubebessant school yard brawls flooded my Memory.
    One day I was enjoying a cuppa and a pack of digestive biscuits, Aldi brand of coarse , when I pondered, maybe. the chickens would enjoy an ould Bickie as we'll , also in donating some to the feathered omelet makers, I would be aiding in my ever faltering quest to loose a few lb's.
    So I doned my fine bear paw slippers , a Father's Day present the previous year, and out I went, bickies in hand . My mind wandered, as it tends to do, and I threw the golden treats with a slightly watered down version of reckless abandon. Images of fr ted skimming the stones on the beach to the voices of "second best priest" spring to mind.
    We'll, didn't one of the discus oaten treats hit the mother hen squarely on her little noggin. Her following jump and alarmed bok bok boking, I will admit made me smile .
    Little did I know that that simple miss guided launching of a lonely digestive would ultimately lead to my down fall.
    There rain of terror started slowly, they got to learn my routine and discoved through unknown to me intel, that I enjoy an extra cheesy omelet every Wednesday morning, low and behold, they go on lay strike, denying me the pleasure of opening the little hatch on the hen hen house to spy out how many brown and white gems have been left for me.
    More worrieing however, I fear my flock have converted to radical Islam ! Every morning i tentivaly wander out to be greatest by the sounds of "Allah auck bar, cluck cluck cluck"
    Has anyone else noticed this happening as it could be that other cells are operating right under our noses. So keep your eyes pealed citizens , be ever watchful ! God bless .

    I feel like killing you after that wall of text.

    Take half of them out and put them in a new run.

    Toss petrol over the old chicken run, light a match and set it alight.

    Warn the chosen half that if they don't shape up, this is what they're facing.

    Not really a time for jokes lads. The OP is clearly not cooping.

    I believe there is only one suitable solution when they won't do as they told: Line them up against the wall. Start counting. Every 10th hen gets the chop. It worked well for the romans.

    Get a cat. Their malevolent inclinations can be easily sated with food.

    The foreigner residing among you must be treated as your native-born. Love them as yourself, for you were foreigners in Egypt. I am the LORD your God.

    You need to gain their trust back, I suggest dressing up in a chicken outfit and sleeping in the yard for a month.



    To know the chicken you must become the chicken

    In fairness he actually did post this thread in the Conspiracy forum but it was moved here by poultrygeists.

    Single out the ring leader and make it pay, if you cant spot the ring leader, it will be the one with the Australian accent.

    Good show lads and lasses , your comments made me smile, which is what life is all about .


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,737 ✭✭✭✭kylith


    Pick a stroppy chicken. Pick it up and bring it around to all its mates and tell them 'Say goodbye to Daisy (or whatever you've called it). She didn't show proper respect'. Then go away and kill and eat it. That'll put the fear into the rest of them.

    I really hope Aongus Von Bismarck doesn't read that. Such commonness would undoubtedly make him feel faint.
