Just to make it clear, the second part was a joke.
About the other, relatives actually got 6 chickens. The main investment is time and land, and occasionally a trip to the vet. Given the US prices… if you eat eggs regularly and don’t want to miss it then I’d assume it’s cheaper, would have to ask for a details myself though (they jokingly said once they would save a ton in the US right now). It heavily depends on outside factors though (less land, dangers = more expensive).
