Official BYC Poll: How Many Chickens Do You Have?

[User690263]

We need a poll option of "not enough" for the number of chickens.

Noooo... 7 and 3 more makes 37, of course!

And if you're not paying attention, the next count will be reversed - to 73!

Ideally. Id like to think Im building a chicken army. Imagine 73 chickens in pursuit behind me when someone comes on my property. However in reality I would probably just look like the pigeon lady on home alone

I dunno; a Chicken Army sounds pretty intimidating to me. Most people get spooked when just a handful comes at them insisting on handouts! "The Cringe" can be pretty entertaining, especially when my old ladies start flying up on shoulders. I have a cousin who won't set foot in my yard until I show her that the coop door is solidly latched. She's a mess!

How about an "accidental" or "in progress" amount, which is where I'm currently at.

Only 4 right now, but I hope to get more in the spring.

I have 18, I lost 2 to a skunk and eagle and 1 ended up being a Roo. So I'm hoping one of the girls goes broody in the spring and I'll trade out the eggs for Australorps chicks. My husband will be like where did those come from, I'll be like, I didn't know she went broody and popped out babys he'll shake his head and walk away
