Backyard chickens are often marketed as a money-saving hobby. But what do the real numbers actually look like?
Welcome to the first episode of The Honest Hen Report, a monthly transparency series where I break down the real finances behind raising backyard chickens.
Every month I will share the exact numbers from my flock, including:
• Total eggs laid that month
• Year-to-date egg production
• Money earned from egg sales
• Feed costs
• Other chicken expenses
• Monthly profit or loss
This series is designed to answer a question many backyard chicken keepers ask:
Are backyard chickens actually profitable?
Right now, I'm about $160 in the hole for the year, even selling eggs for $6 per dozen. In this report, I walk through exactly why that happens and what the real cost of raising chickens looks like.
If you're thinking about getting chickens, already raising a flock, or wondering if selling eggs is worth it, this monthly series will give you a clear and honest financial breakdown.
Future reports will track the full year so we can see if the flock eventually pays for itself.
Subscribe and follow along as we track the real numbers behind backyard chickens.
