Eggs are already going thru thru roof pricewise, now the meat chickens provide will as well............
Probably prudent, at this juncture.
I can live without chicken meat until prices stabilize again, BUT if you’re smart - stock up in the near future if chicken is your thing.
We’ve got bear, elk, home-grown beef, venison, pork, & fish currently in the freezer. Beau just got a gorgeous Bobcat, but we’re not eating it. ;)
We have laying chickens again for eggs. I had a long GAP there between having hens on hand - not letting that happen again, for sure!
Just as you ‘diversify’ in your investments, the way things are these days makes it a smart move to ‘diversify’ and be flexible in your foodstuffs, too. And there’s always subsistence foods like Beans and Rice, Rice and Beans! ;)
Also - if you can, grow or raise or hunt and fish as much of your food as possible.
Did the bird get a second opinion or is this red state election revenge.
