could always get ambitious >>>Certainly not going to save any money buying chickens as opposed to eggs. Unless you have access to free chicken food. I think we go thru a $18 bag every two weeks or so. Then there is the straw and in my case, my wife likes to feed them dried meal worms at $30-$40 a bag. We tried growing our own meal worms once. Stinky endeavor.
I will say the quality sure is worth it. Maybe if you just 3 or 4 hens it could be a break even situation.
I've kind of always wanted chickens, maybe six. I am at Tractor Supply every week so yeah I know the expense. They will not be getting meal worms though, maybe red wigglers in the summer. My friend from my "youth" grows his own meal worms and even that isn't worth it to me.
I do eat six eggs a day though. I eat a very high protein diet. It will give Buffy the feral cat something to watch as well.
When I had chickens and a garden, I would put a few chickens in my garden area and let them forage in there. They loved those big juicy tomato hornworms. The chickens seemed to do more good than harm.could always get ambitious >>>

shorts and sandals today,top down on the forklift,sellin' those cubic yardsAnother Gray Day of snow flurries. I mean it’s been six weeks or more continuous …it’s hard to stay cheerful without sunlight but I’m doing pretty good…. It was real light therapy going into a packed grow room brightly lit with HPS in the middle of the winter. miss it…(not the drudgery of it, but the positive feelings)
"cool hand Luke" could eat fifty boiled eggs... great movie! i might could eat six a day, but that's gonna be one hell of an omelette for breakfast!I do eat six eggs a day though.
spiking trees damages the saws of workers that legally bought the logs for lumber production. spiking mudholes behind gates damages tires of idiots driving illegally & damaging public property because they think rules don't apply to them. one i have sympathy for, the other one? i hope their asshole grows shut...It's kind of like when people talk about "spiking" trees.
You know what happens after that ...... the other one? i hope their asshole grows shut...

had a 240Z in the late 70's, it was lots of fun.
Another one here too. Plus we have been getting like an inch or two of snow everyday. We've got that Polar Vortex coming in again (not sure the first one left) so zero degree temps soon.Another gray day! Spent 45 minutes on the phone with the electric company always fun I was going to say it’s like pulling teeth trying to get information out of them (And could relate to that sentiment very well)
