Two hundred and ten eggs, counted, obviously, twice. The only citizen who files her own returns in duplicate.
The Economy of the Republic
A nation that runs on eggs
Every economy needs an export. Ours has feathers. The hens of Kisi lay, the Bureau of Egg Statistics counts, and the Feed & Agriculture ministry makes sure the grain arrives, so the crate that reaches your kitchen was laid by a hen with a name, a page, and, frankly, opinions.
The National Egg Census
This month's output
The one economic indicator the whole Republic agrees to argue about.
5,350
eggs recorded · August 2026
The steady hens held the line and the harvest crept higher again. The Minister of Egg Affairs called it proof of good governance. The hens called it Tuesday, and Wednesday, and every other morning too.

Open for business
What the Republic sells
The eggs and chicks are real, and they are sold at Kisi Farm, the working farm behind all of this.
Farm-fresh eggs
Collected by hand every morning and packed the same day. You can read about the hen who laid them here, then order a crate over at Kisi Farm, where price and delivery are confirmed before you pay a naira.
The Hatchery
How the Republic grows its citizens, and how a new keeper starts a flock. Day-old chicks and point-of-lay pullets are the next arm of the economy, raised on the same farm as the layers.
On the production line
Latest from the laying houses
Milestones as they happen, because behind every economic figure is a hen having a very big day.
The Republic's most-awaited first egg. Certified within the hour, celebrated with a retroactive public holiday, answered with four words: 'I did my best.'
The President's running total, published in the Census by her own insistence: 'The Republic has no royal eggs.' Audited, at her request, by the opposition.
Who keeps it running
The economic cabinet
Three ministries, one shared obsession: that the eggs are counted and the feed budget balances.

Rather back the whole enterprise?
Buying eggs keeps the Republic solvent. If you'd like to do more, feed, clean water, veterinary care, or a comfortable retirement for a senior hen, Kisi Farm has a straight-talking way to help, with no confusion about where the money goes.
