something like that. Chicken's been around way way longer than that. Like think about back in the Civil War times. If you had two good laying hens, maybe three, you could feed a family of four, right? You'd never starve. Your chickens and your hogs would be your sustenance. Even back in like the 17,6 1500s, a a flock of chickens was for survival. You didn't eat them. You got the eggs and and you transformed garbage into good quality protein and food for your family. It used to be the job of the young boy to go out and find wild game and bring it and throw it [laughter] in the chicken coop. They'd go out and then hunt and like hunt squirrels, fish, whatever. They would drop it over in the chicken coop and that would give them the protein that the chickens need to produce the high quality eggs. turning garbage into good food.
