He doesn't understand chicken math.
This is *almost* everyone in my life My friend, Jenny, gets it and she doesn't even have chickens! I tell my husband that I'll limit it to 6 new chickens per year. Who knows, maybe I will.....but probably not. There are just too many pretty breeds that lay such interesting eggs and don't even get me started on the bantams!
Everyone I work with thinks I'm 100% nuts but who cares
