I have only had chickens for 6 months but I also know the feeling. I don't get to upset as of yet when I lose one to nature and I have yet culled any that were really close to the heart. I do love my chickens and I think at this time that if anything happen to the ones I have at this time I would be upset.
I know that things are going to happen for they is the way of nature. Right now I am very attached to on little roo, I think. that I have that was a slow grower and now has a bit of a limp. I look after him and at one time was going to keep him in the house but he is out with the rest.
I sit here now watching them run in the yard.

It seems that resistance to their initial fluffiness and generally good dispositions is futile for most people. XD

OMG!!!! Now you are addicted too!!! My DH and 3 DS thought I was crazy when I wanted chickens years ago. I caught the brunt of all kinds of chicken jokes. Then one day they came to check them out. Next thing I knew they were hunting bugs for them and building a "better" coop than I had come up with.

Now 3 coops later, they still hunt bugs and bring their families to enjoy!!! It's amazing!!!!

I love this!! I never thought anyone was weird, but I just thought how could you be so attached to an animal who walks around in its own poo and eats bugs..LOL I have since joined all of the mindsets in here..I love my babies(chickens), as much as I love my dogs, cats and kids!

I'll tell you what happened, you caught the virus!

The chicken virus, before you know it you will be all crazy and the only treatment is the medication called buying more chickens, but be careful or you will get addicted to the meds!

I could talk for hours about my chickens to my school friends and my dad, they nod their heads and sit through it to be nice but I know they don't really understand, I'm glad to see that there is yet one more person who feels the way I do.
