I think you have been misinformed. As an American, I can harvest eggs just like the pictured ones from my own backyard on a regular basis.

They don't even cost any money, they come out of chicken asses for free.

[-] joel_feila@lemmy.world 28 points 9 months ago

You must have weird chickens. My lay eggs out if their cloaca.

[-] thegoodyinthehoody@sh.itjust.works 4 points 9 months ago

Isn’t their asshole like inside the cloaca?

[-] joel_feila@lemmy.world 4 points 9 months ago

Their colon is. The coloaca is their asshole, and pee hole, and egg hole.

Pedantic response, thanks for the great contribution

[-] Mr_Blott@lemmy.world 23 points 9 months ago

What a noob. Ours come from shops. That way, our entire fuckin garden doesn't smell like a crashed ammonia tanker

[-] BastingChemina@slrpnk.net 10 points 9 months ago

As a side note, if your chicken coop smells like a crashed ammonia tanker you need to add more carbon in the coop. Dead leaves, cardboard, shredded wood or wood chips are working well.

[-] RaoulDook@lemmy.world 6 points 9 months ago

Sorry your yard is so small. Mine is large enough that the chicken coop is far away from the house and is usually not a bother. Summertime when the wind is just wrong can be an annoying stench, but it's almost nothing compared to the smell of dumpsters in a big city during summer heat.

We call our yards "metres" and they're a little bit bigger than yours

[-] RaoulDook@lemmy.world -5 points 9 months ago

Off topic pedantry, great response

You have no idea how big I can live. What if I told you that I knew a guy who can turn you into a walrus?

[-] AnxiousOtter@lemmy.world 4 points 9 months ago

I'd say pass whatever you've got, I'll take a snort.

[-] MrJameGumb@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

This instantly reminded me of an old Mitchell and Webb sketch lol

Let’s not pretend the acquisition and upkeep of chickens is free… if you eat a lot of eggs it is absolutely worth it, but there is some cost in setting up a coop, getting chickens, keeping chickens fed and safe from predators, disease, etc.

Plus you have to have property to keep them on and be allowed to have them on your property. For most Americans that isn’t possible due to lack of home ownership or HOA restrictions on what animals you can have on “your” property. (HOAs are bullshit)
