MM that's a good point. I don't think it would be possible to grow all our chicken that we would eat. We are just too many. Maybe I'll have to stick to cooking home grown in a different way so we won't be able to compare.
I'll never have to worry about selling eggs or birds. We buy 10 packs of 18 eggs from Costco every second week. Phew. I'm not a people person nor business minded.
Jessica you were never a big baby just a kind hearted farmer! If my dh would do it I'd be more than happy.
One reason we got chicken is that they'd eat bugs. Ralphie mentioned they ate Asian beetles. I was excited! lol. Now I wonder if they'd taste bad if they ate a lot of them? We get infested every fall. Anyway one of my chicks caught and ate a moth. 3 others chased a mosquito. I think I need new screens.
We put together a new brooder last night. They were out growing the IKEA medicine cabinet (we are renovating and it was just handy at the moment). Here is the 2 yo trying it out with a chickie
