RE: Sustainable Free Range Chicken Eggs for Your Family at Home
Great post - I was wondering how you look after chickens, having just read @papa-pepper farm article. Quick question , how long do chickens lay eggs for ( age) - I have contemplated having chickens when I get backto green fields again.
really enjoyed this post thanks for the share :)
Yea. I saw his inspiring article. Well chicken will lay eggs all their life but as they get older they lay less often and the quality will be reduced. So it really depends on the life expectancy of the particular breed of chicken.

And i think you're in Egypt right? do you see chicken there running around? I always imagine that. I see them in some places here in China.
not chickens - but goats, sheep, cows and lots and lots of stray dogs!! - 'farm' animals are in the side streets in the old side of Cairo - quite sad to see really. The Delta side of Cairo is where all the 'green' fields are going up towards Alexandria and here is where cows, sheep, goats get to see and feel green grass! The only chickens I have seen are in cages ! ( hate it) they keep a lot of pigeons on the roof tops
