I'm going to tell my husband tonight about your chicken math and if he doesnt believe me.... Well I will just have to educate him...... Your husbands believe all of you right???

Bantams do not count at all

I never count the OEGs.

My bantams that lay, are only counted as half a chicken due to the size.

This means I only own 2 silkies & 2 LF

not the 50+ total someone claimed to have counted.

This is great Chicken Math! Can I quote you?

sure.

You do know any eggs not hatched do not count at all - and chicks do not count either ........ well, I don't count mine until they start laying

That is exactly what I told my husband!!

No he has been really good about my hobby.

He doesnt know it is really a sickness and I'm not telling him.

You have to leave that part about a sickness out.

Once they start counting and seeing new birds, then you may have to teach him to count chickens right.

New ones that are fully grown never count until after quarantine & then only if laying.

When I want to add more birds, I just remind him how good it has been for me

Of course if I had as many as Amy - then my DH would probably kill me.

Hey, I just realized what you are saying!! If it does not lay it does not count--so all these roosters around here do not count!! That gives me a lot more room!!

Just read the page!

My problem IS my DH. He wants more and more. Well, not Guineas but more ducks and chickens.
