Greetings sbienusa,
It is clear how much you enjoy and care for your chickens. We all hit those lows...when our chickens are under the weather and we struggle to make them feel better. But, then they do something sweet, like gently nibble some crumbs from the beak of another hen. Or, when they run at high speed, wings spread and then flapping! You know they are feeling joyful. And that translates to us humans as happiness, yup, those endorphins are flooding your brain! And there it is, the root cause of your chicken math addiction. Ha-ha-ha! Isn't is wonderful!
God Bless and peace to you and your flock!

I keep telling myself that anyway, as I trounce through the snow to take care of them! 
Lol! My favorite thing to watch is when one gets a tasty treat and takes off with it, the others chasing her hoping to steal it away. Too cute.
