ok - one more.
When you're enjoying a quiet moment after dinner and you and your DH are discussing when your new EE will start laying and what color the eggs will be, you go into the genetics required for her to lay an olive colored egg (learned today on the forum) and your DH looks at you and says 'now you are REALLY scary'.

Whenever you lie in the hammock your buff orpington comes up and stands patiently until you lift her up so she can sleep on your stomach while you pet her.

Eating a popsicle outside starts a chicken free for all.

You get a collapsible playpen on craigslist in case one the girls gets sick so you can keep her inside.

You know that "chicken bowling" means tossing a grape across the yard and watching the girls race for it.

You start kinda considering taking a dust bath yourself when you see how much the girls enjoy it.

If you can't have anyone spend the night because your guest room is inhabited with just hatched chicks



If you have to lie to your husband and tell him you're the one who finished off the Cheerios when actually you gave them to the chickens.

when you milk your goats with your favorite little chick, Imp, sitting in your lap preening. and then you make your goat stand there b/c Imp is so darn cute and is singing such a funny little song......

My DH's input: When your date last saturday night involved sitting eating a moon pie and drinking colas watching the girls dig for worms and bugs in the new weeds and leaves you put in their run. Then you were upset when the sun went down because the girls all went to bed and you wanted to watch more.

We have now set up chairs to sit with them each evening.

When you seriously tell your dh that you'll have to plant more tomatoes next year (not for more tomatoes - we have plenty) so that we'll have even more big green tomato hornworms since that is their very favorite treat! And he agrees-what a guy!

I've considered posting on facebook that I'd be happy to come check other's tomato plants for worms if they'd like, but those "friends" would think I'd really lost it!

And only 6 months ago I never would have dreamed I'd become a CCL!

When you plant 6 watermelon plants in your space-starved garden, just for the chickens to eat.

Now if you planned ahead you could video tape their daily antics and then snuggle together on the couch after their bedtime and watch the video. Then this winter you could watch the reruns!
