are chooks cost effective?

[kiwirach]

bet my question is even dumber than yours.. erm, how do hens get pregnant? (i don't want diagrams or anything just want to know if it's the same way that most animals get pregnant)

also if they do get pregnant that way do they have to do it every day??? and how long is it after they've done the deed till the egg comes along? it cant be just one day surely??

ermm.........i think i'll hand you the dumb question title!!.

thanks for the replys to my questions.....roll on the day when i can have a few girls of my own!

Interestingly Ducks and Geese do have 'appendages' (apparently geese have very strange looking ones...)

Yes, the only non-aquatic bird to have one is the Ostrich....... (more useless facts<g>)

When I was a kid, neighbours had Muscovy Ducks - the drake had a fat pink corkscrew-shaped one!

I did wait until after 9pm to post OK
