I helped get a law passed that allowed people in my city to raise chickens. That was 12 years ago. I’ve been raising chickens for 14 years (do the math, Yes they were). I love it! I’m currently building a new coop, my current one is 14 years old and is looking it’s age. I pay around $15.00 for a 50 lb bag of feed (local Mom & Pop Feed Store) and my chickens free range my backyard for a few hours each day (keep an eye out for hawks). My chickens lay eggs just about each day for about 4-5 years….then they’re “Stew Pot – bound” and a new group of chickens take their place. I’ve had a few different breeds and found that Barred Rocks are the best, followed by Australorps.
