If I can't watch my portfolio make tendies, I'll grow them instead!Spoony Love said:
If it keeps going up, then the pasture fed chicken I raise is going to be cheaper than the store brand, chicken barn package.
Here's my advice: Grow your own food or get to know someone who can grow it for you.
We will process around 125 chickens on March 28. That will be more than enough for our family of 5 for the year. I'll be about $12-13 in per chicken. While it's not cheaper than the regular chicken at the grocery store yet, it murders the whole bird price of what a store calls "all-natural, pasture raised" chicken. And ours are truly pasture raised.
