Since I don't want to change the direction of the post 'Quit selling chickens' I realize that there is some overlap with my post.
I had a request from a single mom with 3 kids who wanted cheap/ free chickens. I'm struggling with giving or selling them for a low price because somebody can't afford it. If somebody is in that position can that person look well after the chickens for all their needs and work hard to make ends meet? Is this really helping them? Would it be better to give them eggs instead? I know that they will miss the joy of chickens that way but it feels the best for me at this point in my life. I'm interested to read about other opinions with respect to the animals, 'buyer' and seller involved.
Thank you!
