The rising cost of eggs

I was at Trader Joe's yesterday.

80/20 ground beef was $6.99 a pound
Impossible Burger was $5.99 a pound

Never thought I would see the day when one of those specialty vegetarian joints would cost listen regular meat, but here we are.

This is going to change the way people eat.
 
Prices went up on damn near everything.

Salads that I used to buy were $6.49, now they're $8.49.

You notice I said "USED TO".

I noticed $1.50 to $2.50 price increases and I said

The only way to protect and show your anger is to not buy it, and I don't.
 
Time to do this lol




Don't know how much feed, supplies, the chickens themselves and the coop costs...... but how much are you really saving? Other than getting fresh eggs, and unless you got a big family and run through eggs..... why do this? :dunno:

chickens can survive off kitchen scraps and you dont need a large coop. " 3 hens and a coop/run that is 4ft by 8ft is all a family of 4 need.

As said in that chicks video,,,,, you need more than kitchen scraps..... proper feed, calcium pellets, bedding, etc.... check out the video in the post that I quoted..... it's a good informative one

Its cheaper and healthier to raise your own. You don't need a fancy coop or lots of special feed. A friend of mine built his coup from used shipping pallets, and other scrap lumber with some old chain link fence. They can be fed regular old cracked grain and expired stuff from the local food pantry. Then there are whatever weeds and bugs they find in the yard. Some of those same hens also fry up nicely. If I lived in a local that allowed it I'd probably give it a shot. There were actually some latinos in my neighborhood that got dragged for having chickens because they'd get out and tear up other peoples flower beds.

Egg laying hens need that calcium for their bones cause a lot gets used in their eggs...cracked grain by itself won't handle it.... and I'm not frying up any hens that I guy, unless they aren't producing anymore..... then new ones would get rotated in, and dinner will get served

They do need more calcium to lay all year, however, there are probably also some less expensive methods to get it for them. Some of these YT and IG wanna be stars get a little fancy with their methods to show off and look good in their upscale suburban neighborhoods. Raising chickens in the yard is so old school and has been done with scraps and ingenuity since forever. P.S., fried chicken is something I can't live without. Don't need it all the time, but once a month or so, I have to.
