    The way they call the cattle is suck, suck, suck. The way they call the hens is chuck, chuck, The roundest eggs are the best for putting under a hen. Thunder and hammering kills chickens before they come out of the eggs. A hen is the best mother for young ducks. A duck brings them far from home.
