I couldn't resist passing this old saying along. Heard it for the first time today. Obviously it comes from a time when whistling was considered the province of boys, and domesticated livestock were common enough that people knew the distinct vocalizations of hens and roosters.

"A whistling girl and a crowing hen
always come to some bad end"
