You know how things just seem to be moving along smoothly then a traveling salesman happens along.... I thought Sweetie Pie and the Girls were buying into the work ethic when a representative from the Frank Perdue Murry Dance Studio called on Sweetie Pie. Butter wouldn't melt in his mouth and the next thing you know the Girls were doing the Lindy Hop, the Poultry Polka  and a very flashy Fowl Flamenco. Of course their favorite was the Square Dance, you know ,"Chicken in the Straw". That was the one that blew the lid off the coop. All those hens trying to "swing your partner" and only two roosters.

At that point the salesman threw up his hands and refused to cut out more footsteps shaped like chicken feet and the roosters regained their balance and made plans to move permanently to Chickcago. With no more feet patterns for the hens to learn new dances and with the sudden desertion of the male partners, the hen all sulled up and staged a work slowdown. It is a good thing that we have two more farmers to supply eggs this week.
