Day 61: Chickens and eggs

M&P recently made some new acquaintances at school in the form of two hens. Apparently school is trying to teach them more about where eggs come from/the circle of life/farming/who knows. The hens have been an ongoing topic of conversation now for the past few weeks. Tonight's conversation was lively -

Me: How were the hens today?
P: Good. Hens poop on the ground, not in a toilet.
Me: Oh really? That's gross.
P: Yes, that's disgusting.
M: Hens have eggs in their bellies.
Me: Oh really?
M: Yes. And hens eat bread. But they don't drink orange juice.
Me: Oh no?
M: No. And they eat off the ground. Not off a plate. And they don't use a fork.
Me: Oh - that doesn't seem very clean.
P: Yes, that's disgusting.

I really like the hens. They're highly entertaining.
