    how long can you leave eggs out unrefrigerated?

    Crzy - our summers are in the upper 90's and 100's and there have been many times when I have left eggs out for two or three days and we still eat them - never had any problems. Betty - Refrigeration sure does change the texture, but I swear even our fresh eggs taste different after they have...

    Squash Ideas?

    We love it grilled on the BBQ. I usually just cut the squash in half lengthwise (or slices if they are larger squash) and toss them on the grill. Turn occasionally and brush with soy sauce and season with pepper and garlic powder a few minutes before you take them off the grill. Very yummy!

    how long can you leave eggs out unrefrigerated?

    I agree with BettyR. I don't like refrigerated eggs either. I leave them out in a basket. If I haven't sold or eaten some and they get to be about 3 weeks old or so, I either feed them to the dogs or make something that takes a lot of eggs. I've been doing this for several years and have...

    My Babies- pics

    Adorable babies!!! The little black ones look like they might be Barred Rocks and the last little brown one could be an Easter Egger (most hatcheries call them Ameraucana, but that's not really what they are). It's a little hard to tell from the pics. They sure are cute little buggers!!

    Getting new chicks tomorrow morning, first time chicken mama

    Haha! You sound just like me! When we started with chickens years ago we decided that 6 would be plenty. When I came home from the feed store that first time I had 9 chicks, and it's been downhill from there! I put different ages of chicks in the same brooder all the time and have never...

    I think I've been tricked!

    That's hilarious!!! Aren't hens funny sometimes??!! A couple of years ago I was outside working on the fence and there was a ton of racket coming from the hen house. When I opened the egg door there were 3 broody girls fighting over the days eggs. It was like a soccer match for a couple of...

    Roosters

    Hi Jen and welcome to BYC! For the most part, the 3 roosters will probably get along ok once they establish their pecking order, but your grandma is right about even 1 rooster possibly running your 3 hens ragged. It depends on the individual rooster, though, so it's hard to say for sure. Some...

    Brooding in the Garage??

    Yes, they should be fine. Set your brooder up so there are warmer and cooler spots and they will find the temps they need. If they are all huddling under the lamp and staying all piled up together, then they are too cold and you may need to add another heat lamp. If they are panting or...
