... you have a table in your living room dedicated solely to the sorting of eggs.

... and another for the two 48-egg incubators.

... your mother says to you, "We need to find some more customers for these eggs... again."

... you look at the three dozen eggs you've just brought in and sorted, and think wistfully of the time when you used to be excited to get three dozen eggs a fortnight.

... you can say chicken in at least six languages.

(In case you don't believe me: chicken, chook, Huhn, poule, pollo, cearc, pollo, dalggogi, ayam.)

 

[Rachel96]

... you have not one but five plastic dog kennels on the back verandah for use by broody hens, which you refer to as "the maternity ward".

 

[Rachel96]

... "I think I had a feather up my nose" is a valid excuse for sneezing.

... you've ever rocked a hen on you lap and sung, "Soft chooky, warm chooky, little ball of fluff; sleepy chooky, broody chooky, cluck, cluck, cluck," in order to induce broodiness.

You're at a wedding reception sitting around a table of 5 men and 5 women and you think "the ratio of roosters to hens is way too high".

It sounds just as weird typing it out as it was in my head.....

Don't know if I mentioned this one or not, but when you're at maximum capacity and STILL browsing kijiji every day for more!
