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?

    Seriously go follow him, though. He talks a little about chickens. He talks a lot about politics and race. He talks also a lot about other videos. He is absolutely hilarious. Especially note the, uh, discrepancies between what he says and the subtitles. It’s an extra layer of humour.

    Basically, dude is half black and half native and all bad-ass. He’s started a farm in the Richmond, VA area and sells chicken, eggs, and some other stuff, which his staff helps proces and deliver around eastern Virginia. He talks about this, and is quite hilarious.

    Not everyone will appreciate him, but I feel like a lot of progressives will. He’s a lot of fun.

      I checked him out, and he is definitely an acquired taste!
      And he again reminded me of how different is the US kitchen to central European one. “And now we have the back part and we will make dog food out of it”.
      We even had chicken head in regular soups (without the eyes) - and gizzards, liver and even other edible parts should go into the soup. I guess the only part you throw away is the digestion track - everything else is just too yummy…
