I just got off the phone with a CPA. I am writing the chickens off but I also have a website structured around them. I'm not worried about selling eggs. I'm taking the hobby business to a whole new level. Let me tell you the taxes are hard. I have over 9k in write-offs and the biggest problem I have is the coop. It can be removed if necessary so I'm not sure if I should have it depreciate. If you can remove the structure technically it's not a solid structure. This is so confusing.
10 chickens doesn't make a business, you need to prove profit 3 out of five years I believe to be considered a business. It has drastically changed in the last 20 years as far as what's allowed. Personally I wouldn't even attempt to write them off.
