How did this happen.......................????????????????????

I have had chickens for several years meat and layers. Then all of a sudden I decided to get more. Then I found this website, got even more layer chicks. Decided to get more than the normal amount for me of meat birds. Now I have DH making a new LARGER coop. To top it all off I just ordered fertile eggs to try and hatch with my kids.

How did this happen? I went from just having a few and liking it to now I cant get enough and loving it.

Just had to share my little vent.

Hope you're DH is adding lots of room to your coop because if you stay on here you'll end up with chickens running out your ears!!!! At least you're in good company, huh?!!! LOL

I started with 10 (about) freebies that the old owners of my house didn't want. Now those are long gone (weasel or coon) and I have almost 30. I have 5 in the bator (origanally 9) and even some ducks. I want some guineas, and some bantam chickens. Its an obsession, but I love it.

Chickens Happen. We started out with 10 grown laying hens and now we have 12 laying hens 11 australorps almost 2 months old, 19 cuckoo marans that are 6 weeks old 5 bantys of which one is sitting 5 eggs 2 barred cochins 1 hen and 1 roo she is sitting on 18 eggs and a welsummer roo that we are fixing to put with his two hens and my hubby is on his way home with a hovabator to hatch some of our and our nephews banty eggs that the hens won't brood. It's an addiction a good addiction.
