SylvisMum Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Last night I dreamt that I was ordering my chickens. I have not got any chickens yet, you see, I have been wanting some for five or six years but we can't at the moment because we are in rented. Also I am working more or less full time currently. In my dream I was on the phone to a supplier, don't know who but obviously they were well supplied because I asked for: Two sussex, one white and one buff. Two maran, one cuckoo and one wheaten. Two araucanas, of different colours. I had everything ready for them, in my dream, a cube all ready and everything they would need (although in real life I am not sure what they would exactly, being a newbie). That sounds like a lovely little flock, though. What do you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SylvisMum Posted January 20, 2013 Author Share Posted January 20, 2013 Thanks, girls. I am sure it will one day too, even if it is not precisely the same. In my dream I went and collected the chickens in a large cardboard box that was like a mini chicken coop inside, with a roosting bar and a nesting box attached, and then when I got home my husband announced he was off to see a clairvoyant. Then I woke up .... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheekymonkey68 Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Woooo seriously strange!! :) how funny Even if you work full time you can still have chickens tho!! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
good_egg Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Seconding the working full time and still having chickens, and the dreams coming true. Mine was inherited from my mum, who wanted chooks on her veg rotation. Love my girls, but I'd better warm you - the dreams keep getting bigger! WIR next!

christyrose12 Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 Sounds like a lovely dream I'd definately go the cube aswell. I bought a classic because I was DEFINATELY NOT GETTING MORE THAN 3!! A few months later and its my birthday and what do I want - yep a cube because one day I might want a couple more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SylvisMum Posted January 21, 2013 Author Share Posted January 21, 2013 Thank you for your encouragement - I will get a or a or a in case I want to increase the flock - might get some rescue chickens as well. I like the fact that the cube is off the ground - seems more natural for chickens to go upstairs to bed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gongladosh Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 I sometimes dream about my hens, though I rarely remember detail. One I do remember however was about 2 years ago was when my top (original Omlet) hen, Kiki was ill. She was holding her own at the time but I remember in the dream seeing her and hearing someone say "she's dying, you know". That morning when I let them out, poor Kiki was unable to move with Peritonitis. We had to have her PTS that day to save further suffering. Since then I've not looked forward to hen dreams very much!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
