Farm Humor
A life-long city man, tired of the rat race, decided he was going to give up
the city life, move to the country, and become a chicken farmer. He found a
nice, used chicken farm, which he bought.
Turns out that his next door neighbor was also a chicken farmer. The
neighbor came for a visit one day and said, "Chicken farming isn't easy.
Tell you what. To help you get started, I'll give you 100 chickens."
The new chicken farmer was thrilled. Two weeks later the new neighbor
stopped by to see how things were going. The new farmer said, "Not too good.
All 100 chickens died." The neighbor said, "Oh, I can't believe that. I've
never had any trouble with my chickens. I'll give you 100 more."
Another two weeks went by, and the neighbor stops in again. The new farmer
says, "You're not going to believe this, but the second 100 chickens died
too."
Astounded, the neighbor asked, "What did you do to them? What went wrong?"
Well, says the new farmer, "I'm not sure. But I think I'm not planting them
far enough apart."
