      He tripped in front of the chickens while gathering their eggs, destroying all their hard work, and now they look at him in disgust and disappointment.

      And that’s why you never keep all your eggs in one basket.

      I believe the chickens have fainted. Note the limp wings on the one in the middle, and the “dizziness” squiggle above each one’s head.

      Chickens are semi-cannibalistic, and if their eggs are broken, they will eat them.

      Or at least I assume this bit of trivia is what Larson is after. Sometimes we think he’s playing 4D chess when he’s a few X’s short of a tic-tac-toe. (And the reverse as well)

        Having been around chickens I wouldn’t say semi-cannabalistic, they’ll totally eat each other if one of them dies even if there’s plenty of their regular feed lying around.

      I thought he like, grabbed their necks and killed them while trying to stop himself falling over. I agree it’s unclear what is going on.

    What is supposed to be happening here?

      I’m pretty confused too. If the chickens hadn’t fainted it would be pretty evident that it’s about “putting all your eggs in one basket” but I dunno

        I read it as them glaring at the farmer for causing this tragedy, suggesting that they don’t know that the eggs were just going to be eaten otherwise.
