FEED COST PER STATE

[FluffTheDuck]

Im doing an experiment to figure out the best states to start an egg producing farm in.

If you want to help with experiment just list the ammount you sell your eggs for, the cost of a 50 lb feed bag where you live, and the state you live in.

State: California
Egg price : 3.5$ no specialties
Feed price : 15$

State: Alabama
Selling price: $2 for neighbours, etc, $3 for strangers.
Food price: $30

I'm no trying to spread misinformation and I'm definently dont want people to base large decisions off this info, I just like doing math and thought this would be a fun experiment to do til school starts up again.

Math is great, a good skill to have and can be magically fun to work with.
Maybe you can take a statistics class, where you'll learn about data collection and results.
The one thing I remember best about that class was the term "garbage in, garbage out".
You can do all the math right, but the validity of the collected data and the conjecture you label the results with are most important.

I'm in Ontario.
Eggs sell for about $3-4 here, and I pay $21 for 40 kg (that's 88 lbs) of layer feed.

Wa state.
Wifes lake friends will pay up to $9dozen
Feed $14 $2 off if I buy on Thursdays local deal

Dont bother with "organic" still has pesticides just supposedly "organic pesticides" that haven't had long term testing on effects to humans and animals. Marketing scam in my opinion.

What is the store with $2 off on Thursday?

Maybe you could factor in average cost of living in a rural area for each state. That wouldn't come out with an exact number by any means, but it would provide you with slightly more accurate data than completely ignoring everything but egg and feed cost.

What rude and uncalled for answers! So you took a statistics class....Woo Who! I'm not impressed. Many of us hold degrees in higher education and don't act like jerks.
The post from what I see was just for fun, not for life changing statistics.
