So they brought the chickens back and asked if they could swap them for some eggs.
The host and showrunner discussed the exchange on the latest episode of theOn Fire With Jeff Probstpodcast.
“That was a shocker.

But it’s a great reminder of why every season ofSurvivoris unique, because of the group dynamic.
Probst also gives some insight into his side of the bargain.
“The thought process for me on a negotiation is really pretty simple,” he says.
So you’re making that decision in real time.”
So we made the deal."
Probst has at least one defender in hisOn Firecohost (andSurvivor 46runner-up)Charlie Davis.
“So you’ve got, we’ll say, 3,600 calories for three chickens, give or take.
Then let’s look at the eggs.
One egg has about 80 calories, so you’re going to get 1,440 calories for 18 eggs.
You’re less than half the amount of energy for the chickens.
I’m taking the chickens every single day!
