Too much Monday, not enough coffee.
If someone says you have "enough" chickens & don't need any more, WALK AWAY. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

This is the third night with all the chickens in the same coop. Sure gives me peace of mind out here in the country. Would enjoy having a Grandpa's Feeder.
