Originally I got chickens to save money on eggs.
Now I have a greater respect of how efficient egg farmers are. It is a lot of work and I can't come close to their cost of doing business. . . . . and some of them are doing such with 5 birds in a cage. I'm not going to pack mine like that and it will cost me more.
I'm now looking for a better reason to raise chickens.
Best I got now is that sometimes they are just stupid funny to watch.
(Oh, my eggs seem to be much higher quality and I have no concerns about salmonella in runny (or raw) eggs.)
