A perfect example is a chicken named Poppy, who flat-out refuses to lay her eggs in the coop and will only lay them in one very specific chair, no matter what the weather conditions are.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Wild Roots Farm shared a video of Poppy heading to her chair in the middle of a snowstorm to take care of business. When her mom sees Poppy trudging through the deep snow, she rushes out to help, carrying her through what looks like at least a foot of snow to what she calls Poppy\u2019s \u201cegg chair\u201d\u2026which, of course, is also completely covered in snow!<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">It&#8217;s clear that Poppy is a very stubborn girl! It seems like it would be much warmer and more comfy if she laid her eggs in the coop. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/wildrootsfarm.oh\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Her mom;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Her mom<\/a> explained more in the caption, &#8220;Egg laid, and she\u2019s been carried back to the coop. Poppy will not lay in the coop. I have changed the material in the boxes a few different times, but she still likes her chair up by the house.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">We love that her mom put the umbrella up to give her some privacy and protection from the snow!<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong>Related: Determined Chicken Goes to Great Lengths to Hatch Eggs in the Perfect Spot<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><a href=\"https:\/\/emojipedia.org\/dog-face\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:\ud83d\udc36;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">\ud83d\udc36<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/parade.com\/newsletters\/parade-pets\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:SIGN UP to get \u201cpawsitivity\u201d delivered right to your inbox with inspiring &amp; entertaining stories about our furry &amp; feathered friends;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \"><strong>SIGN UP to get \u201cpawsitivity\u201d delivered right to your inbox with inspiring &amp; entertaining stories about our furry &amp; feathered friends<\/strong><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/emojipedia.org\/paw-prints\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:\ud83d\udc3e\ud83d\udc3e;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">\ud83d\udc3e\ud83d\udc3e<\/a><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"mb-4 text-xl font-bold md:text-2xl\">Funny Comments About Poppy and Her Egg Chair<\/h2>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Viewers left more than 2,000 comments about Poppy&#8217;s stubbornness and determination to get to her chair, and some of them cracked us up.
