And after having a rough season of a series of health issues in my flock I wanted the opportunity to be able to spend more ‘quality’ time with fewer birds. I vowed not to be a victim of chicken math and take on more work than I wanted to manage. I’ve been saying for weeks, if not months, that I will be downsizing my flock. Knowing you have a problem is the first step to getting a grip on it. At least I recognized I was over my limit. Truthfully, it was sometimes hard to know the exact number because the flock fluctuated as birds were coming and going. When they were in the pen it didn’t seem like many, but when folks asked me how many birds I had I started to say ‘too many’. This summer I was well over that – some of them were chicks I was growing out before re-homing, but even then, I was over capacity. At some point though, we need to ask ourselves how many chickens are enough? Whatever the situation it’s easy to rationalize our ever expanding flocks. I am as susceptible as anyone else to wanting one of every kind of chicken keeping chicks my broodies have hatched taking in rescues or not being able to turn down a good deal. Chicken math sounds more benign than chicken addiction, but in some cases I think they are interchangeable. I often post memes and cartoons on my Facebook page that point out this phenomenon – it may hit close to home, we know that it might apply to us, but shrug it off. Which one of the following statements about certain given animals is correct?.I probably don’t have to explain what chicken math is, but for those of you who don’t know it’s the insidious habit of acquiring a few more birds than you had originally intended.
