The Crooked Roost: I can't stop talking about my chickens!

[TundraFang]

The way I deal with chicken math is I ask anyone I know with chickens if they want me to hatch them some eggs. Then I get to hatch the eggs, keep the chicks for a few days to a few months and I dont have to keep them forever. When I hatched my own eggs we ended up with 3 incubator chicks and 2 TSC chicks. I though having 9 was quite a few but you have 120 so...

I've finally stopped getting more chickens (for now) but now I have 3 incubators full of duck eggs...

Well, I know how I'm going to deal with chicken math... I'll stick my fingers in my ears and say la-la-la-la, I can't hear you, you cute little chicks!

A nice cold shower works too.

On a different note, I go my first lemon today! My poor pathetic tree finally decided to bloom after three years... I'm not good at growing plants

I started a flock thread before but no one posted on it so I'm trying again! I love talking about my chickens, I have over 120! I also love hearing about everyone else's flocks so join in! I just bought 8 new chickens and 2 still need names. View attachment 2886709Here's a Self Blue Ameraucana cockerel, any name suggestions? The other is a RIR pullet but she won't hold still for a picture
The Ameraucana is super sweet! He loves cuddles and scratches and sat in my lap the whole drive home. The RIR on the other hand is a demon. She's already earned a place near the top of the pecking order and even chased my OEGB Rooster around the yard

so cute!

It’s so much better when you grow it yourself no matter how it really tastes! Looks good.

It tasted better than any store-bought lemon I've ever had! Or maybe I'm just biased lol
