With her 11th child born half a year ago, Courtney reveals that she targets to give birth to 14 before putting a stop, as reported by Daily Mail.
The resident of Santa Fe County in New Mexico was a virgin when she got married to her husband Chris.
Currently, the couple has six sons and five daughters namely Clint, Clay, Cade, Callie, Cash, twins Colt and Case, Calena, Caydie, Coralee, and Caris.
The eldest is 11, the twins are five years old, while the youngest is six months.
A report by The Sun indicates that Chris and Courtney spend $1,000 on food alone and move around in a 15-seater van, yet they still intend to add three more children.
To give enough attention to their children's education, they homeschool the brood on their 12-acre piece of land that doubles up as their farm.
"The people who ask how I can give all my kids enough attention are usually those who send their kids off to school. I do not understand their logic when I am around my kids 24 hours a day," she said.
According to her, homeschooling makes it easy for every lesson to be adapted, which also comes with a break where the children run around the compound and feed the animals on their farm.
In church, Courtney teaches Sunday School where she reveals that she has since gotten used to having many children queuing for her attention even when she is busy changing diapers.
The young mother, who admits to loving the feeling of being pregnant, has never suffered from morning sickness and always looks forward to giving birth.
"We want to have more if we can. We want to have 12 children, a family of 14 even," she said.
As much as Courtney is not a fan of birth control, she explains that it is not due to religion, the same way some women dislike being on pills.
