Looks like the chicken came first.

It took 5 months and 28 days, but somehow the dumbest girl in the flock figured out the purpose of her existence. Clove laid an egg. 

She and Ginger spent the morning screaming at each other with the loudest squawks yet. I'd go check on them and Clove would be in the yard while the other three were clustered in another area, and she and Ginger would be having a shouting match. It was ridiculous. And then, I finally got a clue.

As always, apologies for the voice. 

The girls were totally freaked out about that thing that came out of Clove's butt, so we had a talk about the birds and the bees and how they're women now and I will be eating their periods thank you very much. Cinnamon just looked at me like this.
