Jeanne Marie Laskas Quotes
Now, Brooder Is An Interesting Word. People Who Worry A Lot In Silence Are Known As Brooders. But Then Again So Is A Hen Sitting On Her Eggs. The More I Get To Know Chickens, The More I Realize Half Our Language Comes From Chickens. Well, Not Half. But An Awful Lot Considering This Isn't Latin Or Anything. Cooped Up. Egghead. Hatch A Plan. Henpecked. Pecker. Cock. Chickenshit. Chicken-scratch. A Lot Of Chicken Words Are Meant To Deliver Attitude, Which Isn't Surprising To Me Now That I Have Chickens. Chickens Aren't Background Animals Like Fish Or Sheep Or Horses. Chickens Are In-your-face Animals. Chickens If You Have Them, Come To Bracket Your Days. The Rooster Hollers All Morning, And Then In The Evening The Hens Have Left You Their Mysterious Gift Of Eggs.
Silkies Are Said To Be Excellent Brooders, To Have A Tendency Toward "broodiness." This, Too, Is Usually Meant As A Compliment.
