Scholl Farm of Montague
Selections From Webster’s Chicktionary
(written from an avian perspective)
HEN PECKED – a) the very prestigious position of having the singular attention of a
hen. b) received on the back of the hand while prematurely collecting eggs from under a
hen.
BIRD BRAIN – The most sophisticated brain developed thus far in the evolutionary
process Therefore used as a compliment.
CHICKEN-HEARTED – akin to Maitre or “Loving Kindness” in Buddhism.
CHICK FLICK – that cute little tail flick of an adolescent hen’s rump, not to be confused
with the flirtatious sashay used by mischievous hens in red comb districts often located
within shady corners of the barn yard.
We will be at Market with:
Fresh eggs from chickens, ducks and geese.
Our birds are free range during day light hours. Their diet is supplemented with local
certified organic feed from Grice Farms.
