    Would like to start raising poultry for profit

    I'm aware of all the laws. For selling eggs. There is also a market in the area for organic happy pastured chicken. So if I would be selling in that market I think I would have to raise 100% meat birds to make a profit. I will have to look into it a little bit more. But from all the input in...

    I mostly let the buyer pick the price but I've sold eggs from $10 to $17 There is quite a large Latino community here that would buy older hens and roosters to eat. If I was selling an older hen or rooster for meat. Would it be alive or dead? What price sounds fair?

    I do sell them at $13 a dozen. Mostly to neighbors. I let the buyer choose. It's always above $10 but sometimes up to 17.

    I'm already selling eggs. At $13 dozen. I sell 2 dozen a week and my hens go through a bag a week that is $17. I'm making a $6 profit. Which goes to a bag of treats a week.

    I'm planning on making 6 or so mini hoop houses for selling hatching eggs or to at least grow my flock. Thinking of doing Turkeys. Because a lot of people want only 2-3 hatching eggs. Most hatcheries have quite a large minimum. Or doing pasture-raised meat birds. What do you think?

    I'm mostly shooting for $1000 year profit. Do you think breeding or meat would be most profitable? With my current which is the size of yours. I break even on their feed and that's it.

    7 acres of grass. 2 hours a day would be good. Solo Extra pay for gifts and a hobby that pays itself.
