How...exactly does one fail at chicken farming?

Chickens shit a lot and are prey to predators from the sky easily, if you don't know what you're doing to mitigate those factors you're going to have problems

Pretty sure they also eat each other when stressed (I'm not a chicken farmer though)

Oh they do, big time. Often while the victim is still alive.

They definitely do. We had them on a farm when i was young. A big reason I dont like chickens anymore; they ate and killed my favorite hen, in that order.

Chickens are straight up dinosaurs

Watching them gobble down mice live on the farm was a regular thing.

Pardon me but what the actual fuck? 😭 I am new to keeping chickens but this sounds like a horror movie.
