“Raising chickens isn’t just about saving money. The eggs are healthier and the hens are downright entertaining.”

Awe, jeeze. There’s no one worse than an ex-smoker or a new chicken convert, LOL!

I’ll never make money at it anymore. I used to, but it was a lot of work. Now I sell all of their eggs to one customer who sells them to others, which works out well for us both. I get $2 a dozen (about $16 a week) which helps cover feed costs of about $60 a month for 48 hens and a few USELESS roosters.

I just enjoy their company and the fresh eggs.

None more zealous than the new disciple?

I plead nolo contendere.
