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.
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
