Okay. You Have Chickens. What Else?

[SkyAJK]

exactly!

I have this painful wanting to get more chickens and each day I tended to my 13 chickens, the mountain amount of work that is and still I look for more chickens, it gets worse whenever my hens go broody, they want to hatch eggs, I want so much too...

This is the pulling feeling of wanting more chickens is pulling me every moment of their broodiness until they are out of it and so I am out of it with them.

What is that......feeling of wanting more chickens??

Livestock/farm-wise, I have geese, quail and a goat (a family member owns the rest of our goats).

For nothing other than pets I also have dogs, a cat, parrots, and guinea pigs.

It's called "Chicken Math" I think. Buy an incubator and see what happens. I had ten chickens last year. I now have 65 because I collected eggs over my school winter breaks.

They don't call chickens the gateway drug into farming and homesteading for nothing, they're addictive

I started with meat rabbits!! Then honeybees. Then chickens. I swear I have control. I can stop whenever I want!

After I get my Katahdins and pond full of mudcats.

 

[Addicted To Chickens]

I've got rabbits, goats, several dogs, and of course, chickens.

May get some more livestock in the future.

It needs a PhD to work out the "Chicken Math" formula.

X + Chicken=infinitely more chickens
