What am am I looking at?  We spent a couple hundred on our chicken setup few years ago.  Even that seemed overkill. 

 
Yep....We had about 10 chickens at one time....

AND, one chicken killing dog.  We still have the dog, but no layers.

My neighbor years ago put in a chicken coop, make sure you get a cat to kill the rats, they like all the chicken feed as well.  We would sit out at night with pellet guns and kill rats.  Never had them before and they pretty much left when the coop was removed. 

I don't eat enough eggs to worry about the pricing at this point.

Global bird flu outbreak from a year ago is  :bs:

"Cage Free Only" crap in CA that has to be 100% is also :bss:

It not would surprise me the feed has issues now also......we do all this shit to ourselves in the ever pursuit to "Save the planet, people" and now keep chickens "Happy".

How could we eff up eggs?, well we did.

Egg producers using inflation / avian flu / cage free etc as a pretext to collude and jack up prices.  Same deal as the gasoline spikes . . .

The avian flu outbreak in 2015 was deadlier but did not produce price spikes as high as those seen in 2022. The 2015 outbreak killed about 12% of the egg-laying hens in the U.S. Most of the 50 million birds that died were egg-laying hens and turkeys, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Economic Research Service (ERS).

During the 2015 outbreak, the average price of a dozen Grade A eggs doubled, from $1.29 to $2.61, according to the ERS.

Dude.  We had chickens at our place in Alpine.  Ho-Lee-Fuk did we have a rat problem.  Biggest issue was the coop being next to the house.  It was like medieval!  

Our dogs got into the coop 2 nights in a row, decimated the chickens.  Rat problem was gone in a week.  I would have traps going off day and night but still they came.

I still wouldn't mind doing it again, with better preparation.  But my wife doesn't like eggs.  Id eat em daily if given the chance.

 
The people behind me have a couple chickens.  We just cleared up the roof rat problem now I get to hear about a chicken coop rat problem, Well that goes great with the Coyote issue now as well.

 
They sell magic green bait blocks that the mice/rats eat then die. They are very effective. If you use them please put the bait blocks in the democrat resistant bait stations,       or not.

Like Cookie says, I don't eat enough eggs to care about what they cost. Don't get me wrong I love eggs, I just don't eat them very often at all.
