I was going to get 8, but somehow have 28 in the

brooder and just got a call that TSC got chicks a few minutes ago and may have the silkies and ees that I have been waiting for. Someone talk some sense into me!!!!

What are you waiting for? Go get them!!!

(I don't think you will find much help with this here!)

Better hurry, before they sell out.

Y r u wasting time on this forum when u could be buying cute little itty bitty cuddly chicks??

I have 3 chicks sitting next to me as I type, another box with chicks on the counter
and an uncounted number of eggs in the bator, and chicks running around the house
outside. When the white truck pulls up to get you, don't rat me out. I got in a fight
with hubby last night when he caught a little black chick running through the living room.
Ooops.

Actually just keep telling yourself this will be the last bunch you/buy hatch over and over.
It really works. I promise this is the last batch I hatch, for sure.

I got out of my local farm store without any chicks this weekend. Sure I wanted to

and

. I say go ahead and just look....I mean really how hard can it be? I'm still regretting not getting just one more.

But somehow I still have 3 (we can only have 2 hens in town).

Hahaha! I love this place. Think the DH will notice 6 (min) more in the brooder? I mean, they all run around so much it is impossible to count them and I was told that bantams don't really count, right?

Yep, we started with 6. My husband said "Six is PLENTY...no more than 6 PLEASE!" And now, almost 2 months later he said to me yesterday "Wow, they got big so fast...maybe we should get 6 more."

It's that chicken math thing I keep reading about on this forum I rekon.
