Chicken myth #4 - It is expensive to start raising your own chickens.

Well expensive is a relative term. Whats may seem expensive for some people may not seem expensive for others. And it depends on where you live and how many chickens you want. But in general it is not expensive and if you use a little ingenuity you can start with out spending much at all. Just remember that all chickens need is shelter from the elements, predators, and a little food and water. They do not need a fancy house and expensive water and food dispensers. So keep it simple.
