Egg crisis in the USA: couple rents out chickens
The egg crisis in the USA is becoming increasingly wild: a couple from Hillsborough County in the US state of New Hampshire is offering chickens for rent to desperate Americans - with feed and telephone support included.
The egg crisis in the USA is turning into good business for some: a couple from Hillsborough County in the US state of New Hampshire are offering chickens for rent to desperate Americans.
Christine and Brian Templeton are part of the company "Rent The Chicken" - two to four chickens can be rented here for 600 dollars for six months, with food and telephone support included.
Many people want to keep their chickens
"It's very easy to look after and people really enjoy it," says Brian Templeton, describing what you get into as a chicken keeper. The yield is around a dozen eggs a week. Many tenants become so fond of the birds that they keep the chickens afterwards.
The animals are regularly tested for bird flu - the disease causes egg prices of up to ten dollars per dozen eggs in some cities in the USA.
