I do not understand the mathematics behind the dilemma. I’m assuming only the firts chicks cost money, because down the line they will breed.
But feeding them, housing them - vitamins and doctoring costs a lot of money.
So anyone with couple or more chickens - how much does it cost to have them on the table? And realistically how many eggs do you get?
Supposedly there is a big problem with supply chains for chicks, they ship them in the mail but delivery times have gotten worse so survival rates have gotten much worse.
That’s a terrible and good thing to know. Thank you!
