One horse won a cup at a Dublin show, and when a horse would be going to "perish" (die) he would come home and lie down in the stable, and he would be got dead in about a quarter of an hour afterwards. When the people in this district call pigs they say "Hurrish bock, bock", and when we call a goat we say Minnie. When we call turkeys we say, "Bee, Bee." and when we call hens we say, Chuck, Chuck. When my mother puts down eggs she would shake holy water on them so that there wouldn't be any of them bad. When she put down Turkey eggs, she puts a number on them to distinguish them from each other.
