Ohhh so that's what you meant by red. XD; I thought you meant 'red' as in "read". Cause that's what I know it as. XD;
Ok so this is an easy riddle, but I like it. A farmer has a boat that he can only carry one item across a river. The three items he must carry across are: a fox, a chicken, and chicken feed. He must get them across without anything being destroyed or eaten (ie, if chicken is left with fox, chicken gets eaten). He cannot throw anything over the river, must be by taking them across in the boat, one at a time.
In what order, and how, will he take the items across the river in the boat?

Yeah, this one makes me smile.
He takes the chicken on the first trip across, goes back empty. Takes the fox on the second trip across, brings the chicken back. Takes the feed on the third trip across, comes back empty. Takes the chicken again on the final trip across.

Since PP hasn't said anything, I'll go ahead put up another riddle.
This one is kinda hard, but if you think logically, you'll get it:
Tom and his younger sister were fighting. Their mother was tired of the fighting, and decided to punish them by making them stand on the same piece of newspaper in such a way that they couldn't touch each other.
How did she accomplish this?

The sheet of paper was torn in half?

Nope, it's a whole sheet. No tearing.
A door or something like that is parting them while they stand on the sheet, right?
Edit: (I forgot this part, sorry ^^") The paper is under the door and the door is closed; On both side´s there´s paper that you can stand on; But you can´t touch anyone on the other side because of the door

Oh! i think I get it. An average Newspaper page is A3, so it's opened out and they each stand on one page.

A lot of people get stumped by this one.
3 guys go to a hotel to stay there for the night, and they each rent out 1 single bedroom for £10 each. The man they paid goes into the backroom to put it into the till when he remembers there is an offer where if 3 single bedrooms were rented by the same party, they get £5 of (not £5 each). He realises that he cannot split £5 equally between 3 people, so he pockets £2 and gives each of the men £1 back. So they each paid £9 (£27 in total) and the other man has £2 in his pocket. Where did the other pound go?

There is no other pound.
They each paid £30.
The discount brought it down to £25, leaving £5 in the difference.
Of that £5, £3 went back to the guests and £2 stayed with the manager, making it equal.
The way the riddle is worded implies that the £27 and the £2 should be treated separately, when in fact the £2 is part of their £27 payment.
Thus, the £2 that he kept should be subtracted, not added, to the £27 to make £25, which is the true cost of the rooms.
