can keep chickens for eggs for protein
And what will the chickens eat? You still have to grow their feed. Buying feed from the feed store is not self-sufficiency
I have quail and I grow/make my own feed + a little meal worm setup. Although when I run out of my current supply I plan on buying from the feed store in town. I don't think it saves me any money once everything is factored in and it's a good bit of extra work that could go towards stuff I actually want to eat.
food waste, and theyll forage a bit too
