And THIS is the kind of person(your co-worker) that will more than likely perish when/if? the world is in chaos. i have had people grossed out by the occassional blood spot(I remember the occassional spot in commercial eggs) because they thought it meant egg was fertile. And if egg WAS fertile-who cares? Lots of ignorance and hopefully she can loosen up and eat the scarey, humanely raised eggs.

And at the farmers Market, im selling some eggs, meat, live hens and chicks and then an old man comes up to me and starts to tell my about chickens. he says the usual load of crap like how a hen needs a rooster to lay and stuff. I tell him a whole 5 hours worth of what i know. He shuts up and walks away.

Haha I had the joy of experiencing that regarding my garden! I've managed to take an old chunk of horrible Nevada soil, throw in straw and chicken manure and pond scum and coffee grounds, and now it's producing a lot of my family's food. After watering one day, I walk to the convenience store across from the chunk of ground I'm borrowing. An old man, who is sitting outside, asks what I'm growing. After I rattle off a list of about 10 items, he proceeds to tell me what I need to do so it will actually grow. (Everything out there is at least a foot tall right now, and growing very well.) I just smile and nod, then say, "Thanks for the advice, sir. I appreciate it." I didn't bother to explain that I was raised in backcountry Idaho where we produced 95% of our food, and I had a yard full of chickens and ducks, and another garden, just a block away. Maybe at age 35 I still looked young enough to not know what I was doing?
 
Well, they LUUUUUUUV us, that's why our pets make us breakfast!

Pond scum, go down to the local dirty watering hole (trashiest bar around) about 2 hours before closing you can find some scum real easy then, wait, that's regular scum, not the pond variety, so never mind. I live in limestone county and can find quarry hole scum easy, pond is a little hard to find here too...
 
When selling chicks to one of my husbands coworkers.

me "I have easter egg pullets as well, they lay blue eggs"
them "Can you eat them?! The eggs I mean?"
