What happens when you attack a chicken in Skyrim?

Great idea!

I pay about $10/dozen for duck eggs, and we go through about 3 dozen per month (mostly baking, plus the occasional crustless quiche.) I'm just happy they carry them at the huge Asian food store now, instead of me having to drive 30 minutes out of town to get them from the lady with the ducks.

Obviously you should get a few ducks, for free eggs, and something to keep you busy in your spare time.

I considered it! But they're actually pretty hard to care for in a limited space, and it's a lot harder to keep them from flying away.

Yeah, my grandfather had ducks and turkeys free ranging in the yard, they used to terrorize me when I was little.
Oh, and duck and goose poop is natures WD-40.

I eat an egg every morning. My girls have started laying again so we're about to have an egg avalanche here. They don't have a fence so I guess we've got super-alpine eggs?

A horse-sized duck?

Same here, I did a whoa Nellie, back up and read that again.

He usually uses that expression referring to some combination of the three females in the house. To be fair, he has called his hens girls, but it's not nearly as often.

This means that some hens will wait in line to use one nesting box, instead of using an empty one whenever they want.

It's a chicken thang.

Thank you, I did not know that.

I played some game that had chickens roaming in the towns ya came to. I was killing the fuckers, because it was free food, and it made your health meter grow.

Later in the game, I came across two ginormous fucking chickens that took one look at me, attacked me, and killed me plumb to death. This happened a few times, then I played the game without killing any chickens. When I reached the ginormous chickens they took one look at me and treated me like I didn't exist.

I canNOT remember the name of that game.

Apparently chickens are pretty popular in video games.

Is it one of these?

It wasn't a chicken video game. It was some quest-type game that just had chickens in the occasional town. The chickens were a minute part of the game and played no role in it. Other than the great chicken gods killing the shit outta ya.

Thank you, Mr. Flint.

It was Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning. I liked that game pretty much.

I read your post wrong. And incompletely.
