Re: Chicken Math Got Me! How Did Your Flock Grow?
My brother gave me 6 hens to start, and I thought that was plenty. Then I started reading about different breeds, got a little too comfortable on chicken forums, and suddenly I had an incubator on my kitchen counter. Now there are 23 chickens in my life, and I think I might need an intervention!

Started with 4, now I have 22. I swear I only meant to get a few more!

I started with 2, then someone offered me a few more. Now it's a full-blown flock!

Chicken math is undefeated! I doubled my flock in a year without even trying.

I started with just 5, thinking that was the perfect number. Then my neighbor needed to rehome a few, so I took them in. Then I saw some beautiful breeds I just had to have. Now I have 20 and I don't even know how it happened! Chicken math is real, and it got me good.

My first 3 hens were pets. Now I have a whole flock and fresh eggs daily!
