The Gold Coin Pooping Chicken

A dozen customers in-

all buying fair related items

Most sharing fair successes or

fair drama of some sort.

Word on the street

I mean in the -barn-

A family from a county over is bringing a $11500 chicken to the fair

Deflating all the hopes of picking up the grand prize today

Feelings are always being hurt.

I am missing it today-

I must stop by after work and find this chicken

I am sure it is pooping gold coins

Easy to spot

.

“Guess what?!”

His face lights up with excitement

He reaches into the pocket of his cargo pants

“I thought it was my cigarettes

But

-NO-

My breakfast sandwich I FORGOT to eat on my way in.”

Leaning in, at half the volume

“Do you think it’s still okay?!”

The excitement over sausage and cheese is refreshing.

Same guy worried about expired energy drinks a few weeks ago.

So I told him he will be okay.

We will see.

.

That’s it.

Today is the day I am going to start this project

Jotting down notes on the back of receipt paper

I tell my team lead my idea.

2 decades younger than me,

She loves the idea

Plenty of fun

Odd

Slightly creepy

Bizarre

Happenings

At a farm store

In the Midwest.

Most purchased item for today:

Pine shavings

Assortment of cattle groom supplies coming in second

Glad I am not the only 4H mom

scurrying around

Trying to make it all come together.

.

Clocking out

Now off to the fair

to find the GOLD COIN POOPING chicken.
