The one 8,396 Posted January 17, 2023 Report Share Posted January 17, 2023 Would you buy eggs ? , see what the hens do with them Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chartpolski 20,400 Posted January 17, 2023 Report Share Posted January 17, 2023 I’ve got my own hens and ducks so I don’t buy eggs, but I keep an eye on the price; Asda and Lidl do 15 for around £1:60. Not your free range organic eggs, but if your skint and hungry ……. Cheers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
poxon 5,555 Posted January 17, 2023 Report Share Posted January 17, 2023 I keep a couple of layers for eggs.shop prices for are a ripoff I’ve only got 3 hybrids at the moment they lay well enough I’ll probably add 2-3 more but probably pure breds to the flock this summer as I consume alot of eggs so I’ll never be over run with eggs if I do there’s always the dogs or family members that will take a few Quote Link to post Share on other sites
