Yeah for sure. I mean if you had 1200 layers, you get 250,000 eggs / year. It's quite intense. And they don't exactly stop laying them if you don't eat them, either.

I'm looking into doing this kinda stuff. On 20 acres you can raise 2-300 pigs and at least that many chickens. Then growing some crops, and you got a stew going.

I've got a good sized lot in the city (1/4 acre), its not much but definitely enough to have chickens without smelling them.

I want to get some chickens but I travel a lot for work and my wife already said she wouldnt lift a finger to take care of "retarded feather dinosaurs". So its a pipe dream.

I live in a slightly larger city, and have decided to move. I feel your pain.
