    Allergic to store eggs?

    It is very possible that they are allergic to something in the feed that is given to the hens. We can never know with store bought eggs. I have 2 relatives that are extremely allergic to gluten and cannot eat any eggs - store bought or 'farm fresh'. Eating eggs resulted in rapid extreme bowel...

    The Paleo Diet

    I am 100% Paleo - 80% of the time. I learned in my archeology class that ALL early HG humans 'invented' cheese on they're own. It is thought that when they took down a lactating animal they used its stomach as a bag to carry the milk back home. By the time they got there the acids left in the...

    Michigan Right to Farm Act in Jeopardy!! You must act now!

    Yes, it would still apply. Under the act now, you are allowed to have them. You just need to intend to sell (no time limit, dollar amount or other limits are set). Under the proposed changes, you will be required to remove your chickens if your local ordinance forbids it. Even if you just want...

    Michigan Right to Farm Act in Jeopardy!! You must act now!

    By the way, to be a 'commercial' operation, you must only 'intend' to sell some product. There is no minimum amount you must sell. Intend to sell a dozen eggs to your neighbor, mom or friend and your good. I read this in my research and I have not read anything else(yet) to dispute this. I...

    Hi Rusnakes, Here is an excerpt from the Farm to Consumer Legal Defense Fund site. It has dates of Jan 22, 2014 but apparently we get another chance to write, email and show up in Lansing on Feb 12. They say it much better than I can. They read through all the legaleeze and put it into laymen's...

    The Paleo Diet

    My husband and I started the low carb / high fat diet (New Atkins) back in April 2013 when my husbands cholesterol came back a 'little' high. Our doctor promptly handed us a list of low fat/high carb foods to eat and help lower is cholesterol. I took one look at that list and my gut(pun...
