Orchard seeks its next steward

Birdsong Orchards, a storybook homestead in Watsonville where fruit trees bloom alongside roses, goats and llamas, will soon be offered for sale. The much-loved property, a blend of orchard rows and meandering gardens, is making its market debut with April Tavares representing the sale. Celebrated as much for its beauty as its bounty, Birdsong has become a small local landmark — a place where time slows, birds sing and the seasons are measured in blossoms and harvest. April shared that the listing represents more than a transaction, describing it as the passing of a cherished property to its next steward, someone ready to carry forward the orchard’s legacy of abundance and charm.

Backyard Chickens: Are They Paying Rent Yet? (An ROI Breakdown)

The Setup:
5 vaccinated, sexed hens: $45 each = $225

Chicken housing, run, first aid, pest control setup: $900
Total investment: $1,125
Production:
- Chickens started laying ~100 eggs/month since January

- They lay for about 8 months per year (hello, seasonal freeloaders)
- That’s-100 eggs x 8 months = 800 eggs/year - 800 eggs ÷ 12 eggs/dozen ≈ 66.67 dozen eggs/year

If backyard eggs are worth about $5 per dozen

Annual egg value = 66.67 dozen × $5 = ~$333.35 per year

Now, the math you’ve been waiting for:
ROI (Return on Investment)

$1,125 ÷ $333.35 ≈ 3.37 years

Translation:
It'll take a little over 3 years to fully "pay off" your initial chicken setup

— IF the hens stay healthy, keep laying, and inflation doesn’t make eggs $12 a dozen tomorrow.

Bonus Benefits You Can’t Put a Price On:
- Fresh fertilizer (your garden will love you) - Compost machines (they eat your kitchen scraps!)
- Endless entertainment (chickens are hilarious drama queens)
- Chicken snuggles (ok, they’re not into it, but you can try)

Final Verdict: If you were here just for the money, you might want to start a crypto farm, not a chicken farm.

If you’re here for the lifestyle, the laughs, and the best scrambled eggs of your life? You're already winning.
