Feed Prices

The price of chicken feed, goat feed, dog food and people food is rising at an unmanageable rate. You probably already know about the people food. Every effort to become more self sufficient is thwarted by the expense and the labor. I am no longer able to do heavy labor so I do what I can and I thought growing my own eggs would be a smart move. I free range my flock which helps considerably, but keeping chickens is still getting so expensive is may become prohibitive, which is really a shame considering what pleasant people chickens can be.

I much prefer the company of my critters in most cases. People give me hives.
