These chickens are not doing well. Yes, they are perfectly healthy and able to live fulfilled lives. But they have stopped laying eggs. And an egg-laying chicken that no longer lays eggs has little use to its owner. Yes, we see this in all species-strata, including humans.

My father plans to kill them and eat them, very shortly.

Why don't you rescue them? Your children must love them.

Why does a chicken generally stop laying eggs? Do we know?

I am just curious. I would like to get a couple of chickens for the eggs.

My dad has a great recipe for Dutch oven chicken. You want me to have him send it to your Dad?

Fair enough, but it's your Dad's loss.

And yes, my Dad could beat up your Dad, but wouldn't do it because he always asks himself what Jesus would do.
