    Haha, that's something I hadn't heard of before. Sounds like something out of a Carl Hiaasen novel...

    Pfft, a true friend would dispose of it for you, leaving no evidence. Moving it will just delay your capture.

    This reminds me of some TV show I saw sometime, where a Canary bird was registered as the owner of a company and was accused with tax evasion I think it was on the Simpsons, but I can't remember for sure.

    Ron, it's available on Amazon. Shame about your in-laws not getting it, apart from the occasional smudge our eggs are pretty clean. Perhaps you can find someone who appreciates home grown eggs more.

    Dumbest Things People Have Said About Your Chickens/Eggs/Meat

    I read about that in a book, so I started looking into it. Apparently, there have been cases where in a all hen flock one of the hens has developed roosterlike characteristics, even started crowing and mating the others. It still is a female though, and can't fertilize a hen. The book that...

    My favorite is from Christmas lights: "Only for indoor and outdoor use."

    nsnbc.me does not look like a very trustworthy source of information to me. Their contact info and legal disclaimer pretty much make it clear that it isn't a serious news outlet. Using a gmail address and not being willing to stand behind what they publish makes me think that they don't really...

    I think they require a bit of maturing before they're released, not all of your storage is ready to be freed (think triplets are hard work? Imagine 2000 babies at once...)

    Had another discussion about the eggmaking process yesterday. The "women make an egg every month" line really is useful.

    Well said, ChaoSS. And as long as you look into it yourself and make an informed decision, I don't have anything against that. Most people I've met that start talking about being against vaccinating, have not been the sharpest spoon in the drawer, and have clearly only read a very one sided...

    That's thinking I can get on board with. Unprescribed antibiotic use is another thing I dislike.

    Dumbest Things People Have Said About Your Chickens/Eggs/Meat

    @ChaoSS Well, perhaps that was a bit harshly worded, and like hennible says, a bad attempt at being funny, but there are many vaccinations that actually help keep serious illnesses at bay. People live in such densely populated areas nowadays, that if everyone would stop getting vaccinated, it...

    I've always wondered about these "Vaccinations are bad for you, they're a CIA mind control plot" people, do they really want things like TB and polio to come back?

    The no knead breads are pretty nice to make, you don't even have to do all that flouring and rolling into a ball. I just make the dough in the evening, and in the morning I pour it into a oiled cast iron pot that I've preheated. About half an hour with the lid on at 450F and another half an hour...

    @hennible with 25 you might cover cost of keep by selling eggs. So far, at least, our eggs are among the most expensive thing I've ever eaten. We're down to about 4 euros per egg right now, so about 100 euros per kilo.
