oh no, he DID notice, he just knows its a losing battle.

A man is only as happy as his wife, after all.

Back when the hubby and I were in the hanging out part of our relationship we had to go to the feedstore while in the "city" thats 100 miles from our town. When we went in they had chicks and I was so stoked he got such a kick out of how I was more excited over a $2.00 chick than his ex girlfriend was over a 4 carat ear rings.

I guess thats why Im married to him now

lol and Im very lucky. Heck he even went and bought his own horse so that he could ride with me back then also!

Only if he knew then that it would lead to us building a whole new coop for them 6 years later just to have more.

Although Spick our spanish hen (used to be Spick & Span ~blue slate tom) but he got a lil frisky with the horses and lost that battle) is his pet turkey who will sit in your lap, come when called and goes to sleep when you pet her. And being a hunter from the south you should see him get protective when the other firefighters come by the house jokin if she is dinner.

I just got an email from Jason (he's over in Iraq) and the last line of his email is..............................




More animals? Ok? Does it really matter anymore? I stopped trying to count a long time ago. The only way I would notice anymore is if Dr. Doolittle were to drop in and start telling me that we have more visitors now.

Not even sure where that had come from outta him as I haven't gotten any new animals since the Emu's....But I did tell him I was going to a sale today....But I also said it was to try and sell some of the baby geese...Maybe he just 'asumed' I would be bringing animals home too...lol


(Just thought I would share the little part of his email...)

lol, i just giggled a lot

my boyfriend read it and said "i would notice. i wouldn't be mad though, i would just eat one whole and alive very day and see if YOU noticed"

jeez, Nick. thanks for the heads up. of course he's joking (but sometimes i wonder) he tells me he wants 20 ducks and 100 quails. he does nothing but mean talk my chickens. i'll catch him hovering over the brooder talking in baby talk going "ohh you are such CUTE little uglies! silly little clumsy poop factories. ugly little poops!ugly poopidy poopy poop stink. stinky uglies! awww, look how stinky you are!" while they look up and him a chirp, trying to find a snack.

while i stand in the hallway listening going

does he love them or hate them? i swear, he is the strangest man on the planet

My husband calls my chicks McNuggets all the time! He never noticed when 8 chicks became 10, or when 12 eggs in the bator became 27!! And he just rolled his eyes at me when I "asked" him if I could get a new coop, and said, "Do I have a choice?" Alas! The man is learning after 14 years!!! Hee hee hee!!!!

 

[JewellFarm]

you guys are too funny

 

[JakRat]

I always take care of mine before dinner, so if my BF is hungry he knows he needs to help!!!!

I think I'm lucky. My DH has a thing for old iron. It takes ALOT of chickens and coops to add up to the cost of one really old green tractor.
