Frankly, I prefer the birds. What am I to do with eight milkmaids? And their cows! Is this some kind of a joke? If so, I'm afraid I don't find it very amusing.

And as your wordplay: I told you, "No more birds." Let me make my words totally unambiguous: NO MORE BEASTS, EITHER! I am up to my neck with your so-called "e-bulliance" and "guano": you have gone from chicken___t to bull___t. This is not the jolly sort of "hoe, hoe, hoe" you have delivered.
