A hidden treasure at the Kansas State Fair is learning how to bathe your chicken in the poultry building. Here are some steps on giving your chicken a nice bath.
First thing on the list to get ready to start washing one’s chicken, one must grab three buckets, and start filling them up half way with room temperature water. The first bucket will have Dawn Dish Soap mixed up in with the water. The soap will work as a shampoo for the chicken to be washed off with.
The second bucket is not going to have anything added to the water. When the chicken is done in the first bucket, the chicken will be placed in the second one. This will help make sure that all the dirt and soap suds are cleaned off completely.
The final bucket will have clean water with a little vinegar to make the chicken smell pleasing before their time to shine at the Kansas State Fair. After the chicken gets done playing in the water, it is time to dry off and get ready to be judged.
I thought giving a chicken a bath was overall extremely great. The chicken was calm and looked like it was enjoying the attention of the little kids faces as the it was being bathed. I never thought watching someone wash their cock could be so entertaining.
