Future of the chick ~

[GaNewChick]

I apologize if this has been asked before.

I read where many of you hatch large numbers of chicks, and/or buy them in large quantities. My guestions are:

Do you raise chickens for the eggs?
Do you raise them for pleasure?
Do you raise and eat them?
Do you raise them and sell?

Thanks!

I raise them for eggs.

Yes to all the questions.
I sell the extra chicks.
I sell eggs
I enjoy having them as pets
and the pain in the backside roosters go in the stew pot.
