We buy cracked corn and whole corn. The last cracked corn we bought was $7.50 per 50 lb. We also go tomorrow for more feed and are expecting the price to be up. I'll let you know how much ours costs.<BR/><BR/>Eggs in the local WalMart are between $1.40 and $1.90 per dozen. Organic eggs are around $2.15. Right now we use our eggs and give away the excess to family and friends. It is primarily a hobby. But with these 30 new chicks, assuming at least half of them survive, we'll be getting lots of eggs and I might start selling the eggs to defray some of the feed costs.Granny Anniehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18165058412950953296noreply@blogger.com
