Hi Everyone,
Contemplating whether I should start breeding chickens. All information would be amazing but I have a few main questions
1: Would I make a profit?
Are people looking for chickens and their eggs or would I be stuck with tens of eggs and chickens unable to be sold
2: How much space do you need?
Is there a certain amount of outside space they need. I live in the suburbs I don't have acres of land to keep them.
3: Are roosters really that loud?
Will I be woken up at 4 am along with my neighbours or not
4: Would having a cat be a massive problem?
Surely there are chicken breeders out there with cats, are there ways to avoid it or is it a constant struggle.
5: Do I have to be there 24/7?
I go to school and get back home around 3:30-4:30, would this be a major issue.
As I said any other extra information would be awesome.
P.S. Please nobody say in the comments "Oh my gosh he doesn't know anything about chickens or breeding them why is he thinking about this." It is just a thought but a thought with potential.
