Not Something You See Everyday

I like chicken.

Especially fried and served with warm biscuits

and cherry pie,

cant forget the cherry pie!


There is another kind of chicken I like,

the kind you love and feed

and wouldn't ,couldn't, EVER eat

instead, you give them cutesy names

like "Snowflake" and you

build a comfy house for them

and buy them feed

and now and then,

IF they are in the mood

they will lay an egg or two

just for you,

their way of saying thanks

for my house and my food.

Those are the kind of chickens I love most.

I also love horses.

They move into your heart and you name them and feed them also.

It would be harder to say which is more loved

which came first the chicken or the horse?
(is that how the saying goes???)

I love them both, chickens and horses.

Only thing I cant stand is a chickeny horse but that is not what we are discussing here

What are we discussing here? Oh yes!

Things you don't see every day.

Well.....

since you have been ever so good of a sport

 and patiently scrolled down this far

how about this?

Whaaatt? A horse you say?

Whats the big deal about that?

well......

look closer

whats that on the horses back?

whoa!!!! Is that a chicken I see?

Why yes, I believe it is....her name is "Snowflake and she decided it was time to look at the world from a different perspective. Once she got all settled in she snuggled down on the nice warm back of the horse.

She stayed there and looked down her nose at her fellow chicken minions far, far away down on the ground nervously pecking the grass while keeping one eye open for a cat or dog or low flying hawk. Hey that's the way it goes when you are considered a "food" source by almost every other animal  there is.

But not Snowflake! Not today! No, today she was a  queen sitting regally on a furry equine throne.

and that my friends?

You just don't see everyday!
