Question for chicken owners, out of curiosity: what do you think the ACTUAL price of a dozen eggs is from the backyard chickens?

Include: feed, enclosure/repairs, lost chickens from predators, vet visits, chicken retirement lodge, chicken sweaters and hats, etc etc?

Chickens in sweaters

I'm trying to envision how the chicken dressing process happens without catastrophic blood and/or eye loss for the humans involved. Full suit of armor, or are they pretty chill about it?

@me_valentijn @ai6yr maybe they do chicken yoga first to relax?

CHICKEN YOGA

Tampa Bay Times: Chicken Yoga comes to Ybor City, and of course the chickens wear diapers
Once diapered, the chickens are “ready for some crescent lunges and warrior poses.”

"So, of course Ybor now offers Chicken Yoga, a unique take on the animal yoga craze that has predominately centered around goats but has included creatures such as dogs, cats and even sloths."

@ai6yr @tiamat271 @me_valentijn

Because disposables are so bad for the environment, now Googling "chicken diaper laundry service"

@ai6yr @tiamat271 @me_valentijn
You can potty train chickens. That is probably easier than diapering them.

@Laplantgenetics @ai6yr @me_valentijn can they reach the handle to flush or do they need help with that part?

@ai6yr @tiamat271
Scheduling errors involving the different species could get interesting ... 😐
