OT: “ you better check the hound dog when the chicken start pecking”

[Ranger Dan]

A friend of mine mentioned that some guy (stranger) said this to him. My friend is a little goofy, so mayff BHe he heard it wrong. Have you ever heard anything like “you better check the hound dog when the chicken start pecking” or can you interpret it?

Stop cheating/flirting when your wife/girlfriend starts asking questions?

I just checked with Fonzie.....even though his first eight weeks as a newborn were on a farm, he has no clue.

That sounds plausible . Have you heard that before or just figured it out?

Just a guess. It does sound like something people down here in Kentucky would say but I’ve never heard it.

Do chickens eat fleas?

That's code name for the Will Levis flea flicker. It confuses everyone in the huddle so they don't call it

Elvis and Little Feat go on tour together?

Ticks. You better check the dog for ticks when the chickens start pecking.

I would guess this means to safeguard your home/family/person whenever there are indicators that something is wrong/bloodsuckers are present.
