Kinda worrisome... My local grocery store is almost entirely sold out of eggs. Sam's club has a two dozen limit on their crappy eggs. Things are getting bad again albeit much more slowly. 

Really wish I had my own chickens. 

 Chicks are cheap. The chicken coop is not. 

 Agreed. Wish I didn't live in the middle of town. 

 I feel you. 

I have a rural small town mindset that doesn't seem to match with my current geographical location. Not sure how much longer I can take "city life".  

 I'm in a small town... But sadly I'm still too much within city limits.

My wife looked it up, we're 2 feet shy of being able to have a chicken coop. Would love to raise my own cows to eat too. 

 I grew up in the country like 10 miles away from a small town, I plan to make it back there in the not too distant future.
