This is a big month - our $ value in eggs has finally equated to the amount spent on the coop XD

We bought our 16 chickens 8 months ago. If we were to have sold the eggs (we dont, we literally eat like cows), we would have made up (in revenue) the amount we spent on coop. But alas, as the old adage goes, you don't get backyard chickens to save money, you get them to convince yourself you do.

app is henalytics (doesnt cost anything) for those curious
