Two Hens in the Back Yard for Each Person in the House Will Keep a Family In Fresh Eggs
EVEN the smallest back yard has room for a flock large enough to supply the house with eggs. The cost of maintaining such a flock is small. Table and kitchen waste provide much of the feed for the hens. They require little attention only a few minutes a day.

In Time of War a Patriotic Duty

So, growing a garden and getting some hens in the backyard is a good start. And, of course, don't forget a statue of St. Francis.

This article is correct. We have 10 hens and they are entertaining as well as providing eggs for us and our friends.
