I have 24 chickens ... I still love to raise chickens

Do you enjoy Perl poetry? If so, you might feel inspired by my @chickens to write a poem about your experiences raising chickens. :)

Chickens References Added Later 🐔 🐓 🐣

• my @chickens by pjf - classic Perl poem describing the behaviour of the chickens in pjf and jarich's backyard
• Re: Preventing multiple instances (References on flock and running one copy of a script at a time) - perl's flock function has long been a favourite of Perl poets, as shown by pjf with join flock($other,@chickens) if split /from others/ from my @chickens

• Chickens (was: Re^2: Emojis for Perl Monk names) by Bod - tragically, left the coop door open the night Mr Fox came visiting ...
• Re^5: Perlmongers (was: Re^5: Editing node titles w.r.t. Perl 6 (communities)) - London.pm by me to Bod - explains Aussie slang, including chook for chicken

• Re: The 10**21 Problem (Part 2) - If you were plowing a field, which would you rather use? Two strong oxen or 1024 chickens?? ... I can tell you with authority, that if the 1024 chickens were fenced in, they would do a better job than 2 ox, at tearing up a field. They eat everything.

• From harangzsolt33 🔔👳🏽‍♂️🐔 - my hobbies are horticulture, backyard chickens, photography, and good coffee (note that his PM photo is a chicken with two chicks)
• Re^4: How to find out if an argument is an LVALUE ? - the amount of money coming in is barely enough to buy chicken feed for my chickens! I have 24 chickens
• Re^6: How to find out if an argument is an LVALUE ? - photo of one of his beloved roosters that the city forced him to give away
• Re: [OT] Smartphone IO interface: how to control motors and read sensors - I currently have about 60 chickens. They are free range, and when sunset comes, most of them like to sit outside in groups, which means that I have to move them into the chicken coop every night...

• Re: Name Space by Corion - according to his mother, the corion is some part of chickens innards
• Re: Name Space by PotPieMan - I really like chicken pot pie (no turkey, thanks!), so PotPieMan naturally came to mind

• Chicken or the egg (wikipedia) - which came first, the chicken or the egg? (an ancient folk paradox addressing the problem of origins and first cause)
• Optimizing existing Perl code (in practise) by JaWi - with a sig of "A chicken is an egg's way of producing more eggs"

• The Chicken and the Pig (wikipedia) - When producing a dish made of eggs with ham or bacon, the pig provides the ham or bacon which requires his or her sacrifice and the chicken provides the eggs which are not difficult to produce. Thus the pig is really committed to that dish, while the chicken is only involved, yet both are needed to produce the dish. This fable was referenced to define two types of project members by the Scrum framework: pigs, who are totally committed to the project and accountable for its outcome, and chickens, who consult on the project and are informed of its progress.
• Nobody Expects the Agile Imposition (Part V): Meetings - From the "Dogmatic Pigs and Chickens" section: it's advised by Scrum that during the Daily Stand-up (or "Daily Scrum") only pigs are allowed to speak, chickens can listen in but can't speak ... unfortunately, what commonly happens in many instances is that the team sees themselves as the "pig" and all of management as their "chickens" ... the team "goes scrum" and all of a sudden Chicken/Pig cards are flying left and right ... the July 2011 Scrum Update removed all references to Pigs and Chickens; the labels were being used to create barriers between the Scrum team and individuals in the organization who potentially could assist the team.

• Chicken programming language - Chicken is an esoteric programming language by Torbjörn Söderstedt, in which "chicken" is the only valid symbol
