Today, our B&G Winged Victory who has lived with us for 25 years, when I came into his room limping after twisting my ankle overnight YELLS out, WHAT HAPPENED!!! He knows the wording as he shouts it out when he hears a loud sound or the flock are extra loud. I was totally surprised, though how he related it to my limp!

When I jumped out of bed, didn't land totally on the bottom of my feet;
Oh man, that would be something I would do. Something silly like step funny...

I hope you gave him the full story on what happened. My guys just look at me and say "oh" "oh" when I tell them stories. LOL

Morgan does something that never ceases to amaze me. If I'm talking on the phone near her, say, in the kitchen, and someone says something funny, Morgan will laugh after they say it BEFORE I start. How does she that???

@Big Blues, glad you're on the mend.

Amazing, I am constantly surprised at our flock, so much we still don’t know about them and their abilities.
