I noticed BJs is limiting to 2 dozen purchase….
I don’t know if it is being enforced But sign is behind customer service when I was waiting to return an item .

it seems that any time we get new neighbors to rural living they feel compelled to start raising chickens but like clockwork within 6 months or so they realize how much the feed costs, how much work goes into it AND how it draws predators to their property that then get attracted to their little dogs and cats...there are at least a half dozen very nice (electrically wired for heat lamps and all) chicken coop set ups within walking distance to our home that have not been used in years (we had one neighbor whose chickens that were spared in a raccoon attack ended up with PTSD and stopped laying entirely-yeah, he did'nt count on having a couple dozen 'pet chickens' for the next 8 or 10 years).

Our friends prevented that problem by having 2 goats that live in the pen with the chickens. The chickens even sleep right outside sometimes -- nothing comes and bothers them with those horned goats in there. This has worked out pretty well for them, enough that they have moved on to adding meat birds and processing their own meat. They have a basement freezer full of chicken, enough to feed them for 4 months or so.

This is my goal in life. Lol. I want a little homestead with chickens, goats, pigs, and a massive garden. Then I can have a whole freezer for chicken, one for pork, one for beef, and a whole area for canned and preserved fruits/veggies.
