Did I read this wrong?  Only FELIX could talk about castrating chickens.  Some times when I read Felix's post I just figure I aint smart enough to figure out what he means.  Sometimes when he post I just say Hmmmm.  Sometimes I just laugh but this time somebody needs to explain castrating chickens to me.

You don't need a rooster to make a hen lay eggs but they won't hatch unless there is a rooster involved that aint been castrated :>))
