I could reduce the costs if I did not clean the coop out every weekend but I don't like feeding flies anymore than I have to and I like to keep the coop perches and floor clean as it helps to keep my eggs clean too. I just needed to rant and felt fellow chicken keepers would understand more than others would plus I wanted to have an idea of actual costs out of curiosity. I think it is always a good idea knowing the value of what one produces.
Many of the costs to produce had to be made on a "best guess" but I think it comes fairly close to an accurate figure for producing a dozen eggs on our homestead. In figuring the costs as they stand now, I will look for ways to reduce costs without lowering my standard of care....
