Excuses for Hubby......

[silkie_sue]

When DH asks me if I really need more eggs to hatch....I simply mention something he recently purchased....

then I point out "The married man's rule # 47" You can be right or you can be happy

and go back to what I was doing

It's about as serious as the thread it's posted in. But I gotta tell ya, I may be using the "too crowded" senario. Might draw attention to the new eggs though...hmmm.

they'reHISchickens :

People laugh at my name, but they really ARE his chickens! I'm the voice of reason in the family but I also handle the logistics of the breeding/hatching/culling. I lost count of how many we hatched this year but when the flock reached close to 50 of all ages he decided we had enough for the time being. Then i still left 2 broodies hatch although I decided what eggs they had.
DH just feeds them and enjoys them. They are his retirement project to keep him out of more serious trouble. He is a city boy who gets a kick out having chickens in the country. After 4 years he still can't tell the boys from the girls until the boys crow but he's learned Excel to track his egg production, and religiously locks them in at night. They'reHISchickens!
Me? When I retire, I'm getting a cow

I'm married to a city boy too! We should compare what I call, "City boy questions". My hubby comes up with some really good ones.

ex: "Will those eggs hatch if you put them in the incubator?" That's a fair question... except for we don't have a rooster. LOL!​

I love this one. You explained it perfectly.

I get in trouble for being on the computer reading about chickens... In fact, he's fixin' on making a comment here real soon. (As he sits watching tv.)

X2 I get this "are you coming back in the living room?!!!!" in an accusing tone if I get up to check on the message board
