Lucy Raises Chickens

Nitcentral's Bulletin Brash Reflections: I Love Lucy: Season Six: Lucy Raises Chickens
To make ends meet, the Ricardos decide to take up chicken farming. The Mertzes move to the guest house to help and Fred begins to work on a chicken coop. Lucy and Ethel bring home five hundred baby chicks, and to keep them warm until Fred finishes the coop, Lucy turns them loose in the living room!

Check out Nick-At-Nite's I Love Lucy Mondays
this Summer.:)
(Part of N@N Unreality-thon Summer).

Actually it wasn't the living room,it was the den.
She and Ethel let them out in order to feed them.
They got into the rest of the house when Little
Ricky let the door open.

Great Moment:Lucy acting like a mother hen to
fool the chicks into following her back into the
den just as Ricky comes home from work.

Wouldn't it have been easier if they had hired
Fred and Ethel off the bat?
I know it would have led to the infamous Sort
Episode Syndrome!

Actually this episode gives us a bit more of
Fred's background as it reveals that he grew up
on a chicken farm in the Midwest before trying
his luck in Show Buisness.
