RE: The NEW AMERICAN STATUS SYMBOL - GUESS? - The Washington Post REVEALS!

in #homesteading6 years ago

That's right, the Washington Post(link at the bottom) came out with an article recently that the Silicon Valley's wealthiest residents are obsessed with having chickens and lots of them. Many are spending thousands on their flocks with expensive coops fashioned from name brand designers outfitted with the latest gadgetry.

I saw that! Odd, but in a way fitting.

So now in the Bay area of the west coast, the trend of raising chickens and having fresh eggs is what separates the haves and the have-nots.

Not quite. In Hispanic culture, it's not abnormal to raise chickens in the backyards. SoCal has been Hispanicized to the point where it's been nicknamed "Mexifornia." I bet those moguls got the idea from barrio dwellers who have more modest chicken pens.

Sort:  

No big deal. We raise chickens in our yards. But I wouldn't let them in the HOUSE! :) LOL
