Eggs are 10.99 in denver.

It seems easier to just go buy a live chicken.

[ellvix@lemmy.world]

Or somehow corral some of the wild chickens that are running rampant on the islands

[eatthecake@lemmy.world]

I don't know what cage free means but I do know it's marketing speak designed to tempt me away from free range. Not buying it.

[frostysauce@lemmy.world]

Yeah. Complaining about the cost of top shelf eggs is kinda disingenuous.

[doomsider@lemmy.world]

Nu-uh Fox and friends said it was DEI and wokeness causing eggs prices to soar.

I know it is fun to think about getting back at these people but it doesn't really work. They were never rational to begin with.

[doomsider@lemmy.world]

Thanks for all that. I would not bother responding to these guys after an initial comment because I sense they are just being disingenuous.

[twitchingcheese@lemmy.world]

Out here fighting for eggs like scalpers fighting for RTX 5090s.

[doomsider@lemmy.world]

You mean he can ban transgender, eliminate DEI, fire thousands of people, start trade wars, but he can't bring down the price of eggs day one.

Sounds like you just making excuses because you fantasize about gargling his orange eggs in your mouth.

[doomsider@lemmy.world]

Uhh that is only if they are fertilized. It is really just a packaged chicken period.

The US is horrendously backwards on animal welfare.

[jonnynny@lemm.ee]

You could just look at their website to see.

[jackbydev@programming.dev]

It's a dozen eggs, Michael. How much could it cost, $10?

[jackbydev@programming.dev]

I spent approximately $500 on a raised bed and grew like, idk, less than 20 cherry tomatoes. (I wasn't doing it for money, but still.)

£3.15($3.90) at Tesco in the UK btw

[tropicaldingdong@lemmy.world]

[tropicaldingdong@lemmy.world]

[gamechld@lemmy.world]

My gf is getting us chickens this year.

[tropicaldingdong@lemmy.world]

may I offer you an , in this trying time?

[gamechld@lemmy.world]

Why not start with what you got and improve the quality over time as you can, rather than hope for maximum efficiency setup from scratch. Like maybe rent the tiller and just see what grows with the soil as is? Then compost and fertilize.

Like change the parameters of the game. See how much you can do with as little money as possible. It might be less time efficient, but more cash efficient, if that's what you care about.

Remember it's YOUR, hobby, you make the rules of the game, then play it.

This sounds like the stories my grandma told me about the GDR. They also had to get up early to get basic necessities, otherwise they were gone.
