“ Whaaaaaaaat… ? Drown ? Who told you that ? Can’t drown in water that doesn’t even cover our feet, goofus ! Y’all are just - chicken ! “

“ I dunno - Milred. I just dunno. Think we can jump in from here - without falling on our beaks and lookin’ TOTALLY stupid ? “
“ Cluck. NO THANK YOU. I’d rather do the NORMAL thing to cool off - and sit here like some intelligent hen - with my backside to the wind. “
“ Yeeeeaaaahhhh…. What SHE said ! “
Oh yeah, we have lost a few chickens this year to the heat. Hope yours stays ok.
