Oops!
My best chicken advice? Beware: Chickens are addictive!

You will start with good intentions, do your research, build an original coop of repurposed materials, and even have a goal number of chickens.

-THEN-

All too soon, you will find yourself displaying signs of chicken addiction such as:
- You are still researching chicken information even though your chickens are happy and healthy.
- Your chickens are better trained than some people's dogs.
- You cook extra spaghetti so you'll have leftovers to feed the chickens.
- Your husband will be jealous because the first "person" you go to when you get home is your chickens.
- Your family will think that you are on a health food kick because you serve salad more frequently (when you just want leftover produce to feed the chickens!).
- Your chickens are better behaved than some people's children.
- You will attend chicken swaps to look at chickens, talk chickens, and more than likely buy a few additions for your flock.
- You will build a "better" coop less than 6 months after completing the first one.
- You will find yourself planning a worm farm to produce fresh worms for your chickens.
- Your children will want to show chickens at the county fair which means you'll spend a memorable afternoon washing chickens.
- You will plant a garden for your chickens.
- You will become everyone's new best friend with your fresh, grass fed eggs!!
