Keeping chickens is expensive & not allowed in many places. Anywhere w/ an HOA. Many ppl don’t have yards. They aren’t objects they are living things you have to take care of.
Also is that what she’s going to tell restaurants & businesses- get chickens?
Food, water, housing and upkeep all cost money and doing it on such a small scale makes cost per egg very high…
I do.
I wish stupidity would cause the idiots spewing it physical pain
i had to scroll SO FAR to find someone else who mentioned it!
It's not allowed everywhere though. People in apts and condos can't have chickens. 🙄
Gas station on fire? Have you thought about keeping a drum of gas near your home?

So much winning.
I’ll share a response if I get one.
I had a summer job in high school working for an egg farm.
By the time I finished that summer job I couldn't eat an egg or chicken for years. Now I'll occasionally eat an egg, but never chicken. The high cost of eggs isn't affecting me at all.
WE DONT!
Fun little byproduct.
When the house sold and they moved the coop, it was like something out of Willard.
Except they'll end up as somebody's dinner.
What about when electricity will be unaffordable because priority goes to data centers? Mommy will cycle in the yard?
All of this is awesome at preparing people to the worst.
Thanks, Felon.
There is no silver lining to rising costs on consumer goods.
FUCK YOU!

So what could go wrong with encouraging more humans to handle birds?
Let them eat cake, indeed. Somebody needs to touch a little grass, please. Soon.
