Input Details

Number of hens

Pullet cost per bird (£)

Feed cost per kg (£)

Feed per hen per day (g)

Annual eggs per hen

Selling price per dozen (£)

Annual vet & medication cost — total flock (£)

Annual bedding cost — total flock (£)

•Pullet cost is spread over a 3-year productive lifespan. This calculator does not include housing/coop capital costs, labour, or electricity for lighting — add these to the bedding/vet fields if relevant.
•Egg production figures assume year-round laying. In practice, output drops in winter without supplemental lighting — consider adjusting the annual eggs per hen figure accordingly.
