-you make sure they are tucked in every night

-you make lists of reasons you need more chickens and look forward to spring when baby chicks arrive in stores

I've got OCD! Anyone else?

Does it make me crazy if I sometimes softly sing to them when tucking them in?

 

[Abriana]

Nope. I do it sometimes too.

Well....I definitely have OCD. Nice to know I'm not all alone in my craziness

You are a bunch of sick individuals! To treat bird brain chickens like people is disgusting!

It, however, is comforting to know that we are not alone!

This is Bajabirdbrain AFTER washing the bum of a neighbors chicken, blow drying the hen because it was cold and BEFORE we got our own girls! SICK-SICK! ( I held the hen while she was washed)
