My chickens are family: How can that be bad?
My addiction is to BYC. If I spent as much time on my work as I do with y'all, I'd have my work for my degree finished. Seriously, it's THAT bad. Chickens or that diploma?
Pawpawk!
All I can say is Thank Goodness for this site because I have it sooo bad that if it weren't for knowing that lots of other people do too I'd be really worried about myself. I actually have to stop myself from sharing little useless tidbits about my chickens with my family because they are all starting to look at me funny. I honestly think my husband built a new workbench in the garage this week just to give his ears a rest from my chicken rambles.
Me too! I keep waiting for the nasti-gram. I know they monitor what we do online! I don't know what I will do if it happens. I write alot, and its nice to come here for mental breaks. It also works the other way, I hear what everyone else has for chickens and I want some to.It ends up feeding the additcion. I am running out of room for chickens. I just remade my den, I actually took the tv out, and turned the couch around so I can sit and watch the chickens in their fenced in back yard! My mom was very puzzled when she came to visit. She kept asking.. "and what am I looking at here?"
Addicted? Not Me! I have eggs due to hatch almost everyday thru the 27th of this month! With more eggs coming.....18+ extra's......my bator has been going since Nov 07 except for cleaning 4 times.
I keep saying when hatches fail - that's it, never again!
Then I see something I don't have or want and here I go again.....then the power goes out; the turner stops working, etc.
So, after this month - no more eggs will be set........until next spring........or.........no......I am gonna stop.........for a while. Wonder if I can sleep without the sound of the bator? Yeah, it's in the master bath.......might be forced to hatch more so I can get some sleep!!!!!
At this time we are down to about 120 chickens and 25-30 ducks. Hey, I'm doing good....we had gotten up over the 200 marks with chickens alone! So, I don't have an addiction...........yipee.........They say the 1st step is admitting it, and I aint admitting nuttin'
I'm going to school to get my teaching certificate. I'm a week behind in my classwork, I have an exam tomorrow I haven't studied for, I spent the entire weekend watching chicks hatch, now I'm waiting for round two to start pipping, and in the meantime I'm logged into BYC. Problem? Addiction? What?
