$5 is pretty high for me. Even Dollar General is $4, and that's for lazy shopping. Aldi is still $3 I think?

We get eggs by the dozen, or half dozen. I've never seen a ten pack.

All eggs are ass eggs.

In Germany 10 packs are common

Lol, you can buy a full chicken for $5 (10 for $49.99) and they lay between 4-7 eggs a week, you can make an ROI between 1-2 weeks and never have to buy eggs again.
I would strongly recommend you buy chickens if you have the ability.
We wanted chickens so badly this year but with H5N1 spreading and owning 3 cats (which seem to have a high death rate from H5N1) I'm still not sure if it's a great idea. If anyone can convince me though I would still happily get chickens.

To be fair, lots of animals like to kill chickens. I've lost dozens to predators. And I'm committed to free range, I don't want to keep chickens locked in a small coop/run all the time. I still lock them up at night and they appreciate that. I actually have zero at the moment, waiting for spring to start over after some dogs jumped over my fence and killed all of mine. I still get free eggs from my sister though. Oh, and you can't suggest chicken ownership without disclosing all of the chicken shit. It's almost mountains of chicken shit.
I had 7 and am down to 2 because of a coyote.

Unfortunately good feed is more expensive than the chicken.
don't they eat scraps?

Scraps and foraging are a great addition to their diet! But to keep them laying for many years they need a feed that supplements calcium. Making egg shells will leech calcium from their bones and they'll live short lives if they don't have enough in their feed. I like feeding a mash of soy, corn and other vitamins.
