Doing the Math

[fc]

I understand, and that's a big loss to tolerate in your livelihood.
I have spent a lot of money to build a really good coop and run, and the chickens go through the feed pretty fast. I question if I will ever break even, and I really doubt I'll recoup the money. Is it worth it? Not financially. Thank goodness I'm in the medical field and do this for a hobby!

Yah! This is what I needed. The ALBC gave me answers to the "market age/weight" of both breeds. I'll return with my results.

There are small and simple box 4 * 4 * 4 coops you can make for 20 to 30 dollars.
