    Boiling Fresh Eggs - who has tried this method? (Freezing first)

    See! I’m not alone. It's like different years makes it different or something. Years prior it would peel as you described and of course now it's perfect no matter how fresh or old the eggs are. Hopefully it stays like that the rest of the year or forever 😂

    Boiling Fresh Eggs - who has tried this method? (Freezing first)

    Guilty 😂 Something told me it wasn't a good idea. Thankfully only one exploded. The other was fine.

    I have gotten used to their loudness that I enjoy it and it worries me if I don’t hear it 😂

    Boiling Fresh Eggs - who has tried this method? (Freezing first)

    Okay wth 😂 I tried boiling an older egg (less than a week old or about a week old) and it peeled just as easily as the one I "froze" I’m doing one last test on the egg boiling device that always gives me a hard time to peel fresh eggs. If they both peel easy then I give up. My final conclusion...

    Boiling Fresh Eggs - who has tried this method? (Freezing first)

    Yes!! At this point I just eat the fresh eggs and then refrigerate then ones I didn't eat that day. That way I can actually enjoy fresh eggs instead of eating "old" eggs all the time. I still have eggs from March in my refrigerator but I eat the ones I collect daily in May 😂

    Boiling Fresh Eggs - who has tried this method? (Freezing first)

    I had heard that before, but doesn't work for me. I’ve boiled 3 month old eggs and it was just as difficult as boiling day old eggs. Half the egg stuck to the shell. So far this has been the only thing that has worked.

    Boiling Fresh Eggs - who has tried this method? (Freezing first)

    Don't freeze them, but do place them in the freezer for a few hours to get them ice cold. Then let them get back down to at least refrigerator temperature or whatever temperature you usually let your eggs get before boiling. Just not ice cold or they will explode 😂

    Boiling Fresh Eggs - who has tried this method? (Freezing first)

    I think that's why store bought eggs peel so easily. Don’t they put them in a cooler to transport them? They aren't frozen but they do get ice cold. I just tried it again and they peeled so easily.

    Boiling Fresh Eggs - who has tried this method? (Freezing first)

    I used 3 to 5 day old eggs I washed them, dried them, then placed them in the freezer for 2-4 hours. Long enough to get them ice cold but not frozen. I took them out, let them get back down to room temperature and boiled them my usual way: Let water get to a running boil, add eggs gently, leave...

    Nurture Right 360 day adjustment

    It's been a few weeks since I last used mine. But I think you have to hit the menu button until the days blink and then you hit the + or - buttons to add or subtract days. Will it let you do that?

    Nurture Right 360 day adjustment

    When you set the days does it go to 21? Since the incubator can be used to hatch a variety of birds i.e. guineafowl, turkey, chicken, etc. You must set the days manually since it does not automatically get set to 21.

    Chickens die when it rains

    Oh is the tractor coop not covered? This year I also had a broad breasted poult die after it got sick from hard rain. I had the tractor coop covered but it still got wet from one of the sides. Thankfully it was just that one and it didn't/doesn't happen every single time it rains.

    Ended 13th Annual BYC Easter Hatch-Along—Guess How Many Eggs Will Be Set!

    It can be difficult tallying everything up because not everyone who said they were setting eggs actually ended up setting any eggs. And sometimes the ones that did set eggs don’t direct message the admin member running the contest. I’ve seen some just posting it on the thread but that can get...

    Did we ever find out how many were set and were we able to guess how many would hatch?
