Thank you, Sonoran. Is there a larger lot size that you do believe would work in an urban area?
The larger premium would be for the hyper-localism of it. A family might pay $10+ for a dozen "same-day" eggs if the money went to support something they really believed in -- humanely raised...
I don't have a specific size in mind -- the real point is that the egg farm is the primary use of the lot, maybe a small lot around 1,000 square feet.
Ideally, something that could potentially be commercially viable, if only at prices that are much higher than even what you pay at a farmers...

I'm writing a paper about henhouses in a zoning ordinance. I know that I want to encourage people to build henhouses in their yards as an "accessory" to their homes...
