well, i found out that scarce means a lot less and hens have no teeth sooooo it sorta means less than nothing so it would also mean highly unlikely
An idiom is a rendition of a combination of words that have a figurative meaning. Most idioms have no clear "inventor".
Few things are as scarce as hen's teeth.
hen's teeth
No living birds have teeth as adults, some have an "egg tooth" but it's not for biting or chewing, it's to break their shell so they can hatch. Prehistoric birds did have teeth, some were quite impressive. Birds do not have teeth, although some species of geese have tooth-like serrations called 'tomia' which run along the outside of the top and bottom of their bills, and look very much like teeth.
I assume you mean "straight run" chicks witch refers to un-sexed, they are not hens they could be rooster or hens.
Rare and scarce mean the same thing.
yes they do but they are like hens teeth.
Snakes legs with a side of powered hens teeth, and ape tails.
No, hens can't be mean. Though they could peck you when you touch them while their laying their egg, but it's not there fault, there only trying to protect their egg. Hens are actually great pets :)
This is not an idiom, so it means what it says. Something is as rare or hard to find as teeth on a female chicken (or any chicken) - chickens are birds, and do not have teeth.
If you mean meat, then no.
Brood means to worry. It originally referred to the behaviour of hens sitting on hens to make them hatch. The behaviour of the hens at this time became "broody"--worried.
