What should a bag of starter cost?

Dear Editor,

I bought a bag of starter from the feed shop in Barr Street. An old man is selling there and he charged me $3,900. I cannot believe chicken feed is this price.

How can the government allow this? We have to pay more for our local product and less for the foreign. Does this make sense, you pay $130 for a baby chick, then $3,900 for a bag of starter. How much will one sell a pound of local chicken for?

Yours faithfully,

Denise Williams
