Which came first the chicken or the egg??

I cannot answer this question, however, an interesting thing happened to me on the way through the zoo.  I witnessed something I have not ever seen in my whole 40 something years of life.  (never mind.... those who know my real age)

Yes, it was a real live chicken laying an egg!  It was not pretty.  And it was DEAFENING!!  As a child I used to giggle and cackle and my grandmother always said... "lay that egg would ya?" and now I completely understand.  It sounded just like me!  Except with wings flapping, head bobbing, and tail feathers wiggling.  Ok, I may have looked like that too.

So, I just felt that was blog worthy.  This city girl didn't get into the country much and I was FASCINATED!  Couldn't take my eyes off the poor chick!

That's all for now.  Thanks for listening.
