Social Climbing Chickens

We got a call from the next-door neighbor that their bug man (not a man who is part bug-he is actually their exterminator) had found a nest of chicken eggs. As they do not own any chickens and we do, our chickens were deemed to be the culprits. The house next door is rather largish with a Tuscan Vila architecture, and the chickens were laying their eggs in the entry courtyard. Their desire to move up in the pecking order is understandable.

Here is the basket of exterminated eggs. That is a lot of social climbing.

  2. Yes, it is. Sadly, we had to throw them out because we weren't sure if they had been exterminated. It's hard to claim farm fresh eggs if they are coated in bug spray.
