What’s the difference between a bakers dozen and a chickens dozen 🍩🥚 In medieval England, strict laws regulated bread prices and weights. If a baker shorted customers, even accidentally, they could be fined, publicly shamed, or worse 😳 So to avoid the risk, bakers started adding an extra loaf to make sure no one came up short. That’s how the “baker’s dozen” was born: 13 pieces, just to be safe. Meanwhile, your hens don’t care about medieval penalties. You try convincing a chicken to lay an extra egg a week. They’ll peck out your kneecaps. So a dozen stays a dozen. #chicken #bakers #bakersdozen #dozen #12 #history #medieval #didyouknow #storytime #funfact #funfacts #egg #eggs #baking #shilohfarm
