I think this is a false dichotomy. If you do costly things for the betterment of mankind without profit, you will run out of resources to continue doing those things. Profit allows for continued effort, maintenance and improvement of methods and/or infrastructure. If a farmer gives away his grain, keeping back enough for next year's crop, but a drought or late freeze or intense flood kills the next crop, how is he to plant his field the third year? That's excluding any other inputs like paid labor, equipment upkeep, fuel, compost, etc. If he sold the grain for a profit, he can afford his inputs and be able to buy more seed grain for the third year.

I'm getting the hang of griddle eggs. I cracked them all into a large bowl and poured them as one unit. The white runs got pushed back toward the mass. I then cut them into individual eggs and flipped them to finish cooking. They came out almost perfect with no broken yolks.

That would definitely keep the Karen's at bay.

The coons would be worse than the Karen's where I'm at, it's pretty rural. If the aviary was semi-mobile, the structure could move annually and the bedding could compost in place for next year's garden?

Don't mind me, just doing some laundry.

I've done turkeys and chickens. I guess polyface had some guard geese when I worked there. The aviary setup sounds cool. Maybe set it up on skids to move it periodically?

Gotta save the planet with them EVs amirite??

The first book in the project is called "If You Want to Keep Some Chickens," and it follows an escalating if-then storyline: "if you want to keep some chickens you will need to build them a coop. If you feed them kitchen scraps, they will help you make compost for your garden." Etc. The story covers some basic husbandry, a little entrepreneurship and has 5 beginner to intermediate recipes.

I have another book that was pretty much complete, but I'm going back to the drawing board (literally) with that one. I'm about 80% done with the story for a third book as well.
