An Egg-spensive Proposition

August 27, 2024

 

The current hullabaloo is over a new state law that says homeowners’ associations in Missouri can’t ban backyard chickens. The intent is to help people who are upset by the rising cost of eggs to produce their own.

 

So, to avoid paying $2 a dozen, people can shell out for the laying hens; the cost of a coop (unless their chickens are free range); and the chicken feed. 

 

I’m no economist, but I suspect that it’d be cheaper just to buy the eggs.
