Why I Have Chickens

So I don't have to go to Wal-Mart as often. So I know where my eggs are coming from. Because the eggs are fresh. They aren't any trouble. Not any more than any other pet. You can let them" free range" or put up a easy coop from Sam's or build your own from recycled materials. Using the Deep Litter Method (DLM) you only have to clean the coop 3 times a year. You throw some food at them everyday (just like you would a dog) and you get a dozen eggs a week from 2 or 3 chickens. If you breed and raise them, then roosters make great fried chicken. If everyone had their own we could potentially put the chicken factories out of business. Not to mention the educational possibilities for my daughter (and all children). Consider getting your own.
