Does it work?

I never tried reciting poetry to my chooks - do you Zondrae? Always found a tin of corn or a bucket of scraps worked really well in getting them to do what I wanted them to do.

Come to think of it the human female variety of young chicks aren't much smarter are they - feed them a heap of corn and throw them a few scraps and the reaction is pretty much the same. :roll:

Cheers

I may not always succeed in making a difference, but I will go to my grave knowing I at least tried.

Watch out Marty , they'll be out to get you. ;)

The English poet, Wendy Cope has invented a new poetic word she apparently finds useful...Tump ( Totally Useless Male Poet ). They're ruthless mate.

No handouts I'm afraid, we've all been "sold out". By all of them!

now Martyboy that TV show shes all wrong you see marty :o Byron and poetry is not the way to get chicks

I my day, mind you it was some years ago :o :oops: you’d take a Sheila to the pub
:roll: Then you’d go to the rodeo where you’d try on a little Bull sometimes with out much luck as you ended flat on YOUR back ;)
8-) You’d then you’d adjourn to a restaurant or an eating house where you would banter backwards and forward over a little Bull (steak of coarse) :o :( and a few sherbets, (fizzy drinks) of coarse where you thought she was a little lamb and tried to pull the wool over her eyes
:mrgreen: :twisted: Now in modern days if you ain’t got a million dollars in the bank a flash car you ain’t got a chance brother :? :shock:
