'Bessie' is a preposterous name for a chicken.

Yeah, I always thought Bessie was a cows name lol

Who says cows can’t lay eggs?

And don’t say “literally everyone”, that’s a cop out answer

Actually I would say literally no one. I don't think it's ever come up before just now. Just so you're aware though, those things the cows are "laying" out in the pasture are definitely not eggs

Monotremes would like a word.

Fr. I took a double take when I read the meme. What kind of cow lays eggs?? Oh, wait... Who the heck names a chicken Bessie?

[-] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 11 months ago

that's what makes it funny

Everyone knows the proper name for a hen is Henny Penny.
