I see decreasing price of chicken/eggs as a good thing. If a fully grown chicken costs upwards of $5, why is it not a good idea to use better facilities? Wouldn't it be cheaper to keep the birds caged up? I guess it depends on our goal here. Is the idea to give a sense of "ownership" so the program partners feel empowered and can make decisions individually on whether to keep, raise, sell, or eat chicken and eggs? If it is not that, then I think we should explore industrial farming and some central planning. Five dollars for a small live chicken sounds like a problem which this project can help solve but I think we should welcome bringing down the cost (and keeping it stable at the lower sticker price) of nutrition be it animal-based or plant-based should be welcome. tl;dr I don't mean to say don't do this but rather we need to do more.
