Somebody explain the definition of chicken math to me??? I have no idea what it is or why we need it. Or is it like Algebra, you learn it but you'll never use it! LOL

It's a good idea. I've seen people put up craigslist ads trying to form groups for chick orders. This spring I ordered chicks and ducklings with a couple of friends.

I am trying to build a chicken math app for android add all your chickens minus roosters minus non laying pullets minus chicks minus any grow outs minus 10% loss due to future predators or illness minus any you have for sale minus those you are thinking about selling minus any selected for freezer camp calculate how many you have left. calculate the average number of eggs those chickens give you reduce the subtotal by the fraction. Thats REALLY how many chickens you have!! You can further reduce by 40-60% if you have bantams

Facebook idea sounds good, Craigslist makes me nervous.
