Are Backyard Chickens Really Worth It?

Yes, raising a few chickens for eggs is worth it! You know exactly what you’re getting. Organic, free range protein from happy and healthy chickens! They’re going to lay eggs anyway, I see no logic in not eating unfertile free range eggs. We don’t force them to lay all winter. We are kind and compassionate to them and appreciate their gifts of eggs, pest control, consuming food scraps, using the crushed egg shells in the garden and their poop for fertilizer. When they stop laying, we don’t kill/eat and/or toss them aside like trash. We let them live out their lives happily.

Cost wise, it’s more rational to raise your own. As well as having peace of mind that you aren’t promoting factory farms.

If I didn’t have chickens, our dogs wouldn’t have anyone to play with.

Yes!
