We eat a lot of eggs. I am wondering if it might be cost-efficient to have a few laying hens around.

Yes, it should be cost efficient, but will take daily care, and feeding. When the layers get too old, you eat them. A double whammy for your buck.

Chickens are the way to go if you eat a lot of eggs! Once you have eaten a “fresh” egg, you will wonder about those store bought eggs! My “girls” are worth their weight in gold. lol

Milk is $3.49 a gallon here in NC......and as of yesterday, average gas price was $3.50 Oh and dont get me started on the price of butter! Store brands are averaging around $2.99 lb......ughhhhhhh
