The Moonshiner's Leghorns

Counting your chickens before they hatch?

Nope... im actually secretly hoping the hatch isn't that great.... im really starting to struggle for space!!!

I have a couple old roosters I'm still using. I set some pullet eggs. And I don't properly store my eggs so I'm not surprised by the numbers I throw out.

Welcome to my world.
Space and feed are the enemy. I just got a load of chick feed today. I buy gamebird because their chick feed is lower protein and medicated.
They were out so I said I'd take the chick feed. Got home (45 minutes one way) and started emptying it in the bin and half way through I noticed the tag. Laying crumbles.
I was pissed so I called and bitched. Of course they said I could just bring it back and swap it.
I bitched more about the distance, time, gas not to mention I had already dumped half of it.
I'm not pleasant when I'm pissed. They offered to deliver and swap for me. I was supposed to call them back in the morning.
I later got a call from manager saying its harvest season and they were running shorthanded. IF I couldn't make the layer work they would be out tomorrow. If I could make it work they'd give me 5 free bags next time I'm in.

I would have lost my sh!t

I have a chick house and they've still overflowed into the barn and my garage.
I'm about to put plastic down in the spare bedroom.

 

[Painted Calls]

I should write more down. Maybe write a book or something.

What was it you said today when I mentioned exactly this?

 

[Painted Calls]

It's Mother Nature keeping me in check.
She can be a real b!t©h.

You poor thing.

Maybe that's partially why I said that.
My mind is like a steel trap I don't need to scribble stuff.

Replace the trash with chickens.
