A bit of a shill comment but… I have chickens and have been tracking egg production in an app that I’ve built, a livestock manager of sorts called Manger.

Looking at my data, since we’ve had our first egg 743 days ago, our hens have produced 9,393 eggs, or an average of just above a dozen a day.

The app can also count chickens, since each chicken has a UHF RFID.

Wow, I didn't realize some RFID could reach 15 feet out - that's good to know. I naively thought you essentially had to be touching the surface of the tag.
