Finally! An article to prove my chicken match theories to others! I thoroughly enjoyed the writing of the article, as well as the pictures! The quiz at the end was a very nice touch as well! Thank you!

That is just a plain excellent picture you have there. Based on proper chicken math I think you have about 15. :) Not sure how many of those little chicks you have under that Australorp though, I stopped at 8. haha. That's a great coop though, thanks for sharing!
This is hilarious.
I can tell quite a lot of thought and mathematical study went into the making of this article and I love your creative interpretations for calculating accurate flock size. Thank you for the detailed lessons and examples.
Since all my birds are different breeds and lay different color eggs and also have names, I just learned that my flock has been justifiably reduced down to one! I can't keep a poor lone chicken so it must be time to add more!

MROO- excellent observation. Yes if all of those chickens were named they would not count. However, don't forget the golden rule you always have to have at least one chicken. So you can just reply "yes, I have one chicken". :)
To tell the thruth. I expected to learn abouth an other kind of chicken math. The one were you calculate the color in breeding experimens when crossing different colors.
There is one that does. Its called chicken jungle.

This one is more about calculating our uncontrollable flock augmentation efforts. ;) But that is a super cool site! Thank you for sharing.
