Men can not be trusted

awww poor ethel and her lovely chicks, what a horrid hubby she has and right in front of her face,, grrr bad man, is this usual for chickens to behave like this donnah or is he just a cassanova amonst chickens lol

Lovely blog, Donna...
Funny :o)
Now on GoYpedia. Pets in the Garden. Lol.

dont you just men Glad I have a good one and plus not nine babys

All male chickens are Casanova's. A couple I used to know got hens and a cock... the cock did what cocks do and trod then hens morning noon and night, the wife was so incensed she killed him!

Bread lie low lil loved it.poor babies all 9 of them men eh!!!!

good of her

I have the lie low lile of the chicken world Are you Men All the same LOL

Brilliant! I'm still laughing!

That is so funny, lovely pics Donnah........

Love my chickens.i find them so funny to watch, The mothers make such great parents,

LMAO, Donna! Brilliant!

You are so lucky - I would love to have room for chickens, hens and lots of other creatures - I love them all. You must work very hard for them Donnah.
Still laughing! I will look up this blog whenever I feel down.

Brillient Donnah, thanks for a great laugh and NOT all men are like him. Lol

Sexists, the lot of you ( though I think Moongrower's a bit closer to the mark! )! If MEN made comments like this, you'd all be accusing them of misogyny! Give the poor lad a break, he's only being true to his nature.....he's a male chicken, for goodness sakes!

( Vee funny, though, Donna!!!! )

;-)

Sorry Bscot

Lol, Brenda!!

Joking, Donna....well, almost!!!!

;-))

Isn't that one of the problems in our society Brenda... if any man had said something lie this it would be seen as a 'Sexist remark' a woman can get away with saying the exact same thing and she is not challenged. Women are just as sexist as men - more so in some cases.

Sorry Donnah but this is a fact, which is why I tried to point out that a cock treading a hen is natural and normal. We need to stop anthropomophising animals they function, by and large, from basic instinct.

Trying to turn them in to human beings, which they are not, is always going to fail. In any case scratch most humans and you will find al sort of primeval instincts.

We are only a hands breadth from being savages.

Totally agree, Moongrower! You've voiced my beliefs exactly!
I know, we all know, that historically women have had a raw deal at the hands of men, but retaliating in the same way by 'knocking' the male species helps nobody...two wrongs do NOT make a right.
Having said that, anthropomorphising CAN be good fun at times...look at Beatrix Potter! If it helps us, as a species, to care more for the creatures we share the planet with, all well and good. Too often, though, the habit tends to mock them, which says far more about us than it ever does about them.
...and we're only an opposable thumb away from being something else entirely....

Oh dear - are you two getting all philosophical again?

Donna - what fun this blog was! It made me laugh, anyway. :-))

Oops!
That'll be Moongrower and Bscott in the Naughty Corner, then!

Sorry Donna....yes, it was entertaining, apologies if our sidetracking caused any offence to woman, man, cockerel or chicken.

Oy... Spritz stop kicking Brenda or I'll tell Miss! Aanthropomorphising is all very well so long a we recoginse that is what we are doing. Once we start attributing to animals the same feelings we have there are problems. No I am not saying animals do not feel just that they feel, react and respond in a very different way!

Right not to give Mookins blushes again it is 'night. night, sleep tight', time in the MB household...

Lol! The only 'offended' chicken around here is the one in my oven! Having been brought up the only female in a houseful of men, I AM sexist & I admit it! I had to be!
Donna, your blog cheered me up today, & while I agree in principle with MG & Brenda, I am still gonna take the **** out of men! LOL!

I only slapped your wrists, you two..... (lightly)!!! LOL.

Good night - don't forget about the clocks!

Night Spritz! Do they go back tonight? I'd forgotten! LOL!

:-D

I know, who's the bird-brain now!

Hhmm...first time for everything, I suppose! And that's the first time I've had my wrists metaphorically slapped for being too bl@@dy clever for my own good! Will I learn? I very much doubt it.

I shall retire, tail between legs ( anthropomorphically-speaking ) to deal with my clockage ( yep, just invented that one ) and sharpen the pencils.

'night all.

;-)

LOL! Night Brenda! Sweet Dreams!

Zzzzzzzzzzz lol

Night MG! Sweet dreams to you too!

Sunday morning now and yes I have changed the clocks, Thank you all for your coments they made me laugh.

Just as well, Donna! Those two.........playing teacher up like that! I'll get my detention book ready for next time. LOL.

Great blog Donna, gave me a good chuckle!

Yes Donnah in their head they are, lol animals are the same as humans not much difference, I lived on a farm. The swan, mandarine duck live with only one partner. Most men are like this, I live in the real world, if they get the chance and not get caught. The woman are hitting back so don't worry they are getting as good as the men, my daughters they go bingo night clubs their partners have the kids washing up etc not them, they lived in Yorshire and learned from the woman there lol. There was talk about the one parent on radio and a lot of people are questioning why are not the men bought to book,they are always persicuting the woman but not the men, they are the culpret in most cases, this radio programe the mps listen to also George Galloway is on too. When the community pulls these girls down and their children , they want to remember children don't forget that I know as I was a one parent, these are the ones who in future will be nursing you in hospital , deciding to give you a mortage, or educating your children. The head of school education here in my town, he was from a one parent and bought up on the roughest estate, I know his opinion

Good blog Donnah...he's got that look in his eye that cockerel of yours!!

In defence of this poor male chicken I feel certain assumptions have been made about his distinct lack of parenting skills and I would ask you to consider the following ...

Clearly this stems from his upbringing as a battery chicken
Having been rescued by Donnah he clearly failed to inherit the necessary social and developmental skills required for parenthood.

No sooner had he performed his duties than he would find his children taken into care to be fattened for the battery process.

It is therefore quite understandable that never having had the opportunity to bond with any of his off spring ..he assumes his role is finished once they hatch.

To then attribute our feckless ways upon him purely because he is a male chicken is very harsh.

By all means take the **** out of my gender but given his circumstances , his lack of opportunities and poor social skills I would have hoped for more compassion and a less judgemental approach to some of the difficulties he has encountered.

If you or anyone you know has been affected by some of the issues raised here please contact your local KFC branch.

LMSO BB. Nice one ;~)))

FOMCL, BB!!!

;-)

Love it BB !!! :-)))
