Space Chick Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 I think if we haven't heard anything by teatime then we should maybe report a missing person Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicken Shirl Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 We must have it all wrong. They are having a celebration lunch some where posh and he is telling her " They are lovely darling we should have got some before, would you like to get some more" That's what it'll be. Yes that's it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chucky Mama Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 I know, I have had a genius idea. When he gets back, throw your arms around him and say "darling, thank you so much for the suprise, I thought you didn't want chickens, I couldn't believe that you arranged it all while you were away you are the best husband ever" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eggregiousness Posted October 4, 2009 Author Share Posted October 4, 2009 Hi guys! Thanks for your concern. It's not really going awfully well here.... Youngest daughter (age 22) let it "slip" about the chickens last night. He arrived home this morning and it appears that he is not speaking to me. He won't go and look at the chickens and hasn't mentioned them at all - except to tell one of the cats to go and kill them. I suppose there is a good side to that - I mean he could have gone out and done the job himself . He has gone out now - wothout saying goodbye or saying where he was going .

Space Chick Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 Oh dear Give him time, he may come around. Hope that when he calms down and gets over the shock he will be speaking to you again ((Hugs)) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plum Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 Sit it out he'll come round. Go and get a fluffy toy chicken and put it in his chair. Tell him you've named one of them after him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 Oh dear, I'm really sorry to hear that . I hope he doesn't sulk for long . Would a fried egg on toast bring round ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dippy bird Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 oh eck! Are they laying yet?If so - give a soft boiled egg for brekky (if he comes home ), he'll soon come round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenfreek Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 He'll go to the pub, stew for a while, then he'll go out and get them some corn or meal worms or something. Well fingers crossed anyway.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welovemarmite Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 oh no, i think we all thought secretly that it would go swimmingly.... Thinking of you and hope all calms down soon.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicken Shirl Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 Oh dear, he is well down the pecking order now then. I have only just looked at what other animals you have and if you have more than one child he is waaaaaaaaaay down the heap. Must be feeling it. He's bound to get over it though when dinner time comes around. Chin up, keep smiling. They will be worth it those chooks you'll see. Don't fight what you can't change. That's my motto.

chick wiggle Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 Oh no, Im so sorry, let him calm down for while and hopefully he will come round. All the joking we have done on here was just that and you know that we all wish for the best outcome possible. Cliches are not cliches for no reason and im sure 'time will heal all' and he will soften Good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 Bother! That's sad to see. Similar to my OH - they like to feel in charge and a decision has been made without him. Mind you my OH has made plenty of decisions that I didn't like without referring to me first, but we all knew about it when I did the same to him. Hopefully your OH will come round, or get curious and gradually settle down. Now as I am quite evil really, I would do this with my OH, seeing as he isn't speaking, make myself a nice omlet lunch with the works. Sniff sniff, smells nice. Oh yes it's home grown. Would you like me to make you one? There's nothing can compare with home grown eggs. Perhaps daughter will be seen cuddling them - dads and daughters usually sort things out - and he will see how happy she is with them and think OK they're not so bad after all.
