Congratulations on having chickens!
However, that "let's say I have 6 chickens" sounds a bit suspicious; as kids, we once convinced Dad that we were feeding ONE gray striped stray cat -- there were actually three that, thankfully, never showed up at the same time. Is there a bit of subterfuge going on with the REAL number of chickens you have? If so, I would applaud you! I often tell people I can't remember how many I have -- when I absolutely do.
Your life sounds pretty full already, but best wishes with plans to add even more to it.
