We did a similar poll 2 years ago, but we thought it would be fun to do it again, but a little differently:
Some say that chickens are more work to raise than other pets, while others say they aren't. What do you think?
Try your best to keep this an "apples to apples" comparison. For example, don't compare keeping 10 chickens to keeping 10 dogs.
This isn't about the "costs" of raising the animals, but about the amount of time and energy put into maintaining / caring for the pet. Consider:
Getting everything setup for the animal(s)
Daily, weekly, monthly, annual care
General care (feeding, housing, exercise, protection, etc.)
NOTE: YOU CAN (should) CHOOSE MORE THAN ONE SELECTION!
