I Counted

[3KillerBs]

A senior cockerel,
A junior cockerel,
21 females of various ages from 19 weeks to 19 months,
And 3 cull cockerels in a separate coop.

I knew how many chicks I'd bought and that I'd only had one die, but I had lost track of exactly how many I'd sold.

It is easy for me to count,,, I currently have 6 pets,, and always make a headcount at lockup. My highest number was ether 9 or 10. That was a long time ago..
Of course my housing is tiny compared to your coop. Also a city dweller, with small back yard.

When I did have the larger number flock,, all I did was offer the extra eggs to neighbors,,,,, free of course.

No problem counting here...I had 5 for the longest time, but now only have 4 little old ladies. I've had as many as 19 but that was when we lived in the country.

I have 7. I count them at lock up. Actually, I don't really "count" as such. There's a big long blob on the roost. That's the original 4. Then there's a staggered blob that sits on the poop board (for some reason!), those are the other 3. All good.

All of them? Or just those bought in the last 19 months?

I know how many I've bought for this flock since we moved to this property.

This could change.

The only time I can count them is when they're on the roost because otherwise vigorous, healthy chickens won't stand still long enough to be counted.

And you sure can't count your chickens before they hatch!
