My dad keeps cattle and sheep.
I've eaten so many of the calves and sheep that I helped raise - I've lost count.
If only I knew about this scheme beforehand...

Originally posted by CrowleyWhen I was 6 yrs old I used to spend the summer vacation time with my grandparents. Not a lot to do during the hot summers of Indiana when you're only 6 yrs old. One of the things I did for entertainment was to catch grasshoppers and throw them to the chickens. I started yelling "Here Chicky - Here Chicky" when I went inside the pen. One of the chickens realized it meant I had a grasshopper, so it would come running as soon as it heard the call.

Well, it got to where the chicken was my pet. I would show the grownups how I could go into the pen (without a grasshopper) and yell "Here Chicky" and my pet would run up to me. I named her Chucky. Chucky the Chicken.
I lived in Michigan so I didn't see my grandparents during the school year, nor my pet for that matter, but my grandmother did write. Right before the next summer vacation she thought she should tell me, "WE ATE CHUCKY". 😲
I ain't ever been the same since.

She got OVER 20 grand from all the suckers who felt sorry for her.
I saw another one like this a while back. It was in Germany. It is just a money making scheme. rather clever really. They don't really eat the little bunny.
