<<I can picture you and chickens!! >>
<g> Which one--the pounce on the styrofoam or the nest-box eviction?
So here's another. We walked hounds in a corn field that had been cut in the last few days, and I picked up a few lost ears of corn--thought the chickens might be amused by it.
When I got home, I called the chickies and set the ear of corn on the ground. They gathered round in a circle to stare at it... Began to murmur over it. "Are you gonna try it?" "Are you kidding? *I*'m not gonna touch it..." "YOU try it!" "No WAY..." What are you, chicken or something?" "Get Mikey to try it..."
Finally I popped a few kernels off--now *that* made sense, and they snapped those down. A few more kernels and they had the idea!
