DH just e-mailed me this link in the subject he writes "hmmm...???"

I just wrote him back:
"Seriously.... I will hurt you..."

My DH is crazy how about yours?

    Yeah, we're hoping to get some chickens when we get all moved into our new house, but I can see how that might seem crazy if you hadn't already talked about it :)

    Haha! While it would be pretty strange to have DH send this out of the blue, I'd actually be pretty interested in having a few chickens. I know a couple of people who already do and love getting fresh eggs all the time!

    I guess this is a UO but I think having chickens (unless it's a farm or very rural setting) is gross. I'd kill my neighbors if they had stinky chickens next door.

    A clean coop of 3-4 chickens on 1/4-1/2 acre isn't terrible IME. But it's pretty dry here so thing's don't tend to get too stinky I guess? I know a few people with chickens and they only stink when they're all together as chicks in the heated box. Pee-yew! If only they smelled as cute as they look when they're chicks.

    We have A LOT of land and we only want two (really only one, but we want it to have company).  I honestly don't think anyone would be the wiser (I had some growing up and i think it'll be ok).

    I want chickens someday! Although that someday comes with a freshly built house on a nice piece of land...

    A lady can dream, can't she?

    My sister's boyfriend has chickens.  He's a man of many hobbies.  I love it because he makes a mean omelet!
