Chickens

 

A city slicker moves to the country and decides he's going to take up farming. He heads to the local co-op and tells the man, "Give me 100 baby chickens." The co-op man complies.

 A week later the man returns and says, "Give me 200 baby chickens." The co-op man complies.

 Again, a week later the man returns. This time he says, "Give me 500 baby chickens."

 "Wow!" the co-op man replies. "You must really be doing well!"

 "Naw," said the man with a sigh. "I'm either planting them too deep or too far apart!"
