is it an animal, veggie or mineral oil?
Poultry fanciers of America
Let the chickens speak for themselves,
Yarmouth, Massachusetts to
Mormon Wells, Utah.
"Our chickens lay better eggs."
"Under those white feathers is divine meat,"

They crow, tongue in cheek.
"Here is the product of fine breeding since 1869."

Rocks should be the national bird, some fancier's say.
Other's point to the Eagle, and will not sway.
Children around the U.S. know a different Plymouth Rock,
Keeping with the traditional history of the Mayflower landing.
