farmin'chick :

if you keep a nearly grown Golden Comet rooster in the house because he doesn't WANT to go to the chick house, dammit! and he drinks coke out of YOUR can and bobs for ice cubes in your iced tea, rides on your shoulder in public, rides in the car and you think that's NORMAL.....

This one should get a few votes...

You might be a crazy chicken lady when

...you hear the economy is bad and your first concerns are about your girls.

...you own 3 or more books and are subscribed to a magazine that all tell you the latest ways to update your coop or keep your chickens healthy and happy.

....you dream the world is in total chaos - 2012, no machines working and what not- but all is ok in your life because your chickens are breeding like mad (I had this dream last night)

....If you sit outside half the night with a crossbow in your lap hoping to kill whatever killed your chooks!

...if you dream that all your pullets laid their first eggs the same day, and they were already numbered, and ready for the incubator!! haa haa haa (last night)

You might be the crazy chicken lady if ...

Your children are trained to collect slugs, caterpillars, junebugs, and worms as feed for chickens (even better if they do this while visiting friends)

Your husband groans when she comes in the restaurant and whispers "Don't tell her we have chickens!"

If whenever you find someone else who has/likes chickens you feel like you've found a soul mate...

if when you're flying cross country you look at the pictures of your new baby chicks to keep you happy.

You go to a wedding of a dear friend in MT and end up talking chickens with the grooms mother.

You are a CCL when you are forgetting where "barn shoes" end and where house slippers begin. Ewww!

In a panic one does not have choices...and then there is also being so engrossed in what in the heck are they up to now and forgetting to change the shoes.....

When your DH says............."so instead of being the old cat lady, you're gonna be the chicken lady."

Darn right.

OK I know I am a crazy chicken lady.....

I sit for hours in the chicken yard watching over the teenagers I have let out of their pen every day to get them used to the older girls and the older girls used to them. I have a long thin stick to keep order and the older girls from getting after them too much.

I have no problem going to the doctor with poo on the bottom and side of my shoes that I forgot to change. When I get up on the table and I notice the nurse looking at them I just tell her that chickens are my passion.

When I go to therapy swimming the owner announces on the loud speaker that the Chicken Lady has brought eggs again for sale and everyone clammers to the counter to buy them..

And I add about 30 dollars more to the egg money to buy speacial feed for my girls.

I explain the the ladies swimming why I had to put saddles on my chickens so they don't get sun burned. And the way they reacted to the saddles in great detail.

And there are so many more tales that tell everyone I know that I am a crazy chicken lady.
