How do chickens have the spare resources to lay a nutrient rich egg EVERY DAY?

308 views

It just seems like the math doesn’t add up. Like I eat a healthy diet and I get tired just pooping out the bad stuff, meanwhile a chicken can eat non stop corn and have enough “good” stuff left over to create and throw away an egg the size of their head, every day.

Farm chickens have been bred to eat a lot and make an egg every day. The chickens that laid the most eggs the easiest were actively selected by farmers to reproduce so that they could have better and better chickens and more and more eggs.
