You string LED Christmas lights outside their window on a timer, so they won't be jolted awake when you come home (after dark this time of year) and use a camping lamp to close up all the coop-to-run doors and do a head count.
You and DH turn off your headlights at the gate or don't turn them on...
Awesome! I'm jealous. I wish mine would learn to crow. One of our Bachelor Pad coops is right next to his window. We bring him in to the brooder room because he gets a kick out of talking to the chicks. At first they freak out but then they settle down and realize the guy flying around the room...
You know you're addicted to chickens when you've said "Hi guys!" when going into the brooder room, so many times, your parrot has now learned the phrase and uses it often.
