Pros and cons of owning chickens

Title says it. I want chickens, my husband doesn't. I want us to look at this from a realistic view. We have a 1 year old daughter and I feel like having simple chickens will teach her responsibilities. Cant have dogs or cats inside. Outdoor animal ok. And I think a chicken would be fun. Having some eggs sound fun. Husband said we wouldn't be able to go out on overnight trips anymore since chickens need to be let in and out of their nests morning and night.

Tell me yours thoughts and experiences and other things we might not have considered.
