Think we qualify for federal money?!
Mission Dutch Underway!
Ah hah! Now you're talking! Let's write a grant!
What does that have to do with their left behinds? I think left or right would be equally pertinent.
Cats, honey, WE have left and right behinds. Theirs are merely pertinent.
Araucana don't have any behinds...does that make them irrelevant?
Yes they do!! They're pachyderms!!
Does someone have grownut's rock? She seems to have slipped out unattended.....
Elephants are pachyderms. What does that have to do with chickens?
I think rhinoceros are pachyderms too.
Has anyone seen a picture of the kind of chickens grownut is breeding in Kentucky?
Claire i thought they were Elephants but i also thought they were Camels and yes i confess to being mentally ill.
Pachyderm -obsolete order of mammals including hippos, rhinos, and ellies, known for having thick skin and one big 'bun'.
I was merely pointing out to Cats that one can have a bun without its having to have a pointed tail -she was casting aspersions against araucanas....No behinds! Hmph!!
Excuse me but you just gave a perfect description of ME
Bactrians are the camels--and Dromedary. Depends on whether you want to sit "on" or "between" the humps.
Moxon has Camelidae but they lack humps.

Obsolete order of mammal without a pointed tail? I might recognize you by typing or chicken talk, but never by figure, regardless how striking!! Temptress...how could you...lol.
Shoot, I just found out they've changed the orders of things...my world may never be the same...
So if pachyderms can have one big bun--why must Araucana have two? And if they have no right behind, how can we legistate about their left behind? It is relative, is it not?
Are they also Right and Left Winged?
They mustn't. They have one nicely rounded bun which may be carefully legislated with sufficient excess of language to fully obscure original intent. Perhaps by generating subheadings delineating portion or area of single behind...
Phew. Sounding like bedtime. that was awful.
Any sufficiently abstruse litigation may be relative....
Wait, Harmony's got the right of it...
We need Moxon to put this into fully unintelligible legalize. I know you are doing your best, grownut, but your explanation is still sufficiently grammatical to make it seem like it might be parsed into something meaningful.
Morning assessment of the Meeting of the round table last night:LOL
The "No chicken Left Behind or right winged" Act entitles you to Title I funding.
As long as you make EYP (Egglaying yearly progress). Not making EYP can place you on the list of FINOI. (Flock in need of improvement). Wouldn’t want that, now would we? That would jeopardize your Title I funding and put you at risk of Government take over.
SACID out.
Sewincircle, had I known we were being that intelligent and intelligible, I may have quit sooner, lol! And Thanks!!
Ok I need clarification please. Am I supposed to have one big butt or two? I checked it out in the mirror last night and OMG something horrible has happened cuz it seems to have drooped ALOT and now I can't tell what I have. I asked my DH and he said 'I'm not going there' so I need your help.
don't worry, it's just gravity taking over. i have the same problem
Have interpreted the signals you fools have thought was "pecking" and each one is saying I'M RIGHT BEHIND YOU.
Catscan. Per your request.
Wherefore it has been established that Gallus gallus domesticus is the subject of this agreement, and further wherefore it has been established that the aforementioned subject is not classified as a pachyderm (see footnote 1) nor is it a camelid (see footnote 2), the following is hereby established.
Definitions:
Member: A member is herein interpreted to mean a single living being. Therefore, a member of the Gallus gallus domesticus may comprise an example from the group consisting of, but not limited to, : a hen, a pullet, a rooster, a chick, a layer, a capon, a silkie, a bantam, a cockerel, a chicken, and a hatchling.
A. A member of the Gallus gallus domesticus may decide, sua sponte, if said member wishes to be identified as a left behind or a right behind. Notwithstanding, some members may be found to be absent behind, such as said Araucana variety, wherein said member may still be identified as possessing a behind of a modified character, and further wherein there shall be no prejudicial treatment afforded said member.
B. Said members, having identified themselves consistent with Paragraph A, should report their status to the "Minister of Coop Metrics" (hereinafter Minister) who shall keep a detailed record of all member preferences with regard to said behinds.
C. It is herein established that no member who has registered their behind preference, shall be said to be omitted from any training program concerning the production of ovoid matter.
D. Any such member who does not register, a priori, their preference, shall be assigned a preference within a 30 day period, not to be extended without payment of at least one ovoid per day overdue, payable to the Minister, and said assigned preference shall not be traversed absent payment. A traversal may be submitted under Section 3a of the Act, accompanied by the fee payable under Section 12, subsection 6, paragraph 37a, line 4.
E. All sua sponte elections of preference shall be confidential and are not subject to the provisions of the F.O.I.A. under any circumstance and are to be treated similarly to medical records.

Sit and think on it a while (that's how I cope)...And please remember I only volunteered the butt diagnosis for Cats' araucana which she MALIGNED.
I do not do humans unless they are fully feathered -No,nvm, not even then!LoL!
Oh. My. Almost sufficiently abstruse as to be unintelligible. Brilliant! What's a member?
Is a pachyderm like a girdle? I think I need one of those now. OMG I can't believe this happened to my butt. Do people actually wear these ? http://www.brasnyc.com/itempage-6206-146-185-288.html:O
They're good after a C-section and for keeping hips in joint if you come from a family with hip trouble. I do think you managed to find the most singularly unattractive specimen of them all...lol!
Actually methinks that synchronized swimming might be the answer. I've been looking for any excuse to wear the hats. http://www.headcovers.com/400/petal-swim-caps/

Grownut: Thank you for the review - said document has now been amended to add a definition for member.
At my age it's all went south and theres no hope of it ever being where it was even with help.
My front side is pretty ok for being old as dirt. I just can't believe my butt betrayed me :( I may need therapy.
Front,Back,Side makes no difference looks the same comeing as going.
I figure if I don't look it can't bite me...
A good and valiant start, Claire!
ROTFL GROW!!!
I am WAY behind, but....are you saying that Grownut has big chickens?
Scrolling back up.....
