    It is said that hens know when it is going to be raining for the whole day because when it starts they go out picking and if it is only going to be a shower the go in shelter.
    Turkeys are supposed to be the proudest fowl because they walk with their heads up.
    When puting down eggs for hatching they choose the person who is supposed to be the luckiest.
