The Chicken Coop

Jamie and Cyndy followed their host, Agnes, to the chicken coop to check on the 200 chickens being fattened for slaughter. You stoop down to get into the coop gingerly so as not to startle so many chickens. Agnes stepped in first, then Cyndy. Just as Jamie stepped in, Agnes's cell phone rang with a ringtone of praise music. Behind me Jamie says, "OH, (with a tender tone), they even have praise music for the chickens." Once I explained to Jamie that it was Agnes's cell phone, we fell over laughing. Even Agnes had tears rolling down her face. Can you imagine- saving the souls of chickens before they go to slaughter!?

The story was hilarious! You had me thinking the chickens were going to attack or something. But I guess since it was praise music...
