Will this fee include food and some sort of shelter for
these chickens??

My yard is not fenced so no telling where those hens
would wander to plus the danger of dogs or owls killing
those birds. Kroger supplies my egg needs.
There's a coop included.

Some people will be stupid enough to fall for it without giving the >>>>>> expense any thought.
2 chickens for 500USD is ridiculous. We paid around 15USD for
vaccinated chickens that were about to start laying. This is 8 years >>>>> ago or so.
You can buy chickens pretty cheaply here. One listing cites
$30 for 18-week-old layers and $16 for one-year-olds. (That
doesn't make sense to me, but I don't know doodley about chickens.)
In a couple of months, I'll be able to go to the Tractor Supply
store and buy chicks. If I wanted to, which I don't. I'm quite
satisfied to pay $5.50 for a dozen eggs and not have to deal with
things that crap.
City people.
I don't have dogs or cats, either, which many city people like.

Ok, so it's more than just the chickens. But the whole idea of renting
a chicken is weird to me. It's all very wanky.
I think it's for people who don't want to think about what happens
to layers when they reach the end of their productive years.
chicken breast. See why? https://drive.google.com/file/d/1KwFdhpXfGofMAtxKzCVmyxYjhKxGU7bJ/view?usp=drive_link

I don't need no stinkin' 500 dollar chickens. I got all the eggs I can
forage and more importantly, chickens keep the place bug free. To keep
the chickens off my walkway, I just let the cat out for a while. The cat
and the chickens have an understanding. The chickens don't go on the
walkway and the cat won't hassle them too much.

Don't forget! They are kind enough to leave the eggs on your car, in
order
for you not to strain your back when picking them up! =D
