for a moment there I thought you were putting underfloor heating in to the coops....

Next step is to work with base 3, just for fun.

I do hexadecimal (Base 16) and digital (Base 2) for programming every so often. But I don't think that counts here...
And the fun potential is limited to some twisted sense of humour/efficiency...

But using base 16 results in a smaller numbr-direct contravention of chicken math....lol
Yes am married to an engineer.
Yes we discussed this over breakfast. While turkeys were hatching in the incubator.
So far 5 of 20 hatched and the other 15 are pipped!

I assume ya all are working on a mathematical formula, where one can keep a flock of hundreds, but it will appear to a "normal" human eye as maybe 15?

I was thinking that my chicken anniversary past last week and I totally forgot to mention it. When I was 12, we sadly lost all our pets late one summer. A Fox came into our yard one night and fought with our dog, it turned out to have rabies. Even though the animals had shots the government vets pressured us to put everything down. My parents didn't want to risk the chance so they sent everything away to be put down. The only thing they kept was our pony and her colt. Next spring just before the Easter long weekend, we came home from school one day and mom and dad had a surprise for us, they had been to town for groceries and also got a puppy! We were so excited, then mom and dad said to me "we got you a special puppy too, it on the back seat". I looked and there was a little box with holes in it. When I looked inside it was two chicks, and the rest is history or is that chistory lol. Well how's that for chicken math, from two until now!

Ok WWW it's been sometime since I translated binary.... so whats in the hidden message? LOL

SR, man thats a bummer! Our dog got in a fight with a rabid fox as well in the late 80's, I was probably 7ish. The dog, Tippy didnt get bitten and came back negative but was quarantined for quite sometime. Lucky.

That must have been a gr8 (I kid you not, my autocorrect just did that and i dont spell like that at all. Whats the world coming to when a perfectly spelled word is changed to slang!) day to get a puppy and chickens in one day as a child!
