Already started. We have a coop about ready, my wife has experience, we're semi-rural, about set. Only thing, I want them free range and I'm not sure about the wildlife.

Haven't seen a fox in ages. The local coyotes don't come in here, yet, but a massive new development is pushing them out of their comfort zone. Plenty of raptors it seems. But hell, I can afford everything but a ton of fencing, of any kind.

What to do? Just run out with the 20-gauge and start blasting at 3AM when shit goes sideways?!

I need to post on the chicken comm.

You should put maga stickers next to the price tag, just to remind the folks :)

People need to start putting trump "I did this" stickers on everything like the magats were on gas pumps.

God i love having chickens

I’m finding 18 for $9. Discount groceries. Not Walmart, that place is more expensive post 2020 than dedicated discount grocery stores.

Even so. Eggs priced like meat is going to cause a lot of protein malnutrition going forward.

Good! (Said with a condescending vegan tone.)

Eventually it becomes cheaper to raise chickens.
