Are you a Night-owl or a Early-bird

[TheMother]

Congratulations! How did you do it? I'm getting pretty desperate...

Coffee excites me. I preset the coffee maker and know that all that is between me and a cup of coffee is walking a couple feet and pressing a button.

I just changed my vote to "early bird"

Yas! After waking up before 5:30 (before my alarm) for a week I can officially call myself an early bird!

Thanks! I love it! Okay, I'll be happy to share some stuff.

#1 - I have two kittens that are sleeping with me at the moment. They always wake up early (between 5:30 am and 7:00 am) and wake me up with meowing to get out of the room or playing with each other.

#2 - I set my alarms...and even if I think to myself "It's so cozy in bed, I don't want to get up!" I KNOW that I have to or else I'll fall back to sleep and get up at 9:00 am. And it's especially hard to get up because it's so cold in the mornings.

#3 - Being excited about something wakes me up early, naturally. Like a birthday, a long trip, or something like getting a new pet (even a fish).

Do you have any other questions?

I didn't see this until now.

Thanks for the advice! I've actually gotten a little better, but it snowed a couple days ago and I haven't had the motivation to go take pics of the chickens and wild birds in the cold.

Me too!!!! And uninterrupted BYC time
Always been an early bird. My eyes open around 5am and my brain decided long ago it was the best time to think of everything. Having something to look forward to is also helpful to focus on something instead of dreading the fact that you're awake so early.

Uninterrupted BYC time is not something to be taken lightly. You cherish every moment until it's no longer free. And then you go make more coffee and cherish that.

Yes exactly lol.

Morning trick discovered: put a few rooster cockerals in your closet. Even if it is pitch black, if one bumps the other they will crow, but other than their unpredictability I can find no flaw. I can guarantee you'll be up by the second crow at 5:45 AM!

I am definitely a night owl. I hate getting up early. I tried to change my sleep schedule on daylight savings, but that didn't work out. I just find a good book before bed and i say to myself, only one chapter, and the next thing I know, it's past midnight and I'm done with the book.

I am an early bird.
Non chicken people would say I'm up before the rooster crows.
Chicken people would laugh because we know that roosters crow 24/7/365.
