What Eggonomics does

Everyone with a backyard flock gets the same question at some point — usually from a spouse: "so what do these eggs actually cost us?" Eggonomics answers it with real numbers. Tally the morning's eggs in two taps, log feed bags and bedding as you buy them, and the app does the arithmetic the 48-page forum spreadsheets have been doing badly for years: cost per egg, cost per dozen, and how that stacks up against the price at your grocery store. Start by adding your hens — breed, hatch date, photo, and whether she's laying, molting or gone broody — so your daily counts turn into real productivity numbers like eggs per hen per week. A break-even tracker takes your coop and startup costs into account and shows the honest payoff date, not the optimistic one. When a neighbor swears her hens lay for free, you'll have the chart. The ledger handles the rest of flock life too. Recurring coop chores — deep cleans, waterer scrubs, bedding changes — sit on a simple schedule next to your expenses, so maintenance and money live in one place instead of a calendar, a notes app and a guess. Eggonomics is 100% offline.
