More turn to backyard chickens amid rise of egg prices
SUMMARY: As egg prices continue to rise, many families and small businesses are turning to backyard chickens for fresh eggs. Bill and Wendy, who started their chicken hobby due to rising costs, enjoy the health benefits and control over their egg production. Baker Teresa Dunn reports that increasing prices are hurting her market sales, while Ashley Rishu, who raises chickens, sees savings for her business. However, she warns that raising chickens isn’t as simple as it seems; it takes 4 to 6 months for them to mature and lay eggs.
