That is puke in a can. I bet it doesn't even taste anything like real gumbo.

I’d eat it.

I’d eat it.

I bet you they don't sell any cans of that in Louisiana.
I've never noticed it here but I will be looking today to see if it's even sold here.

This is my Austra White Daisy. Daisy is 6 months old. Daisy has been laying for less than 2 weeks. A sweet little cream/ivory colored pullet egg.

These are the "characteristics" of an Austra White as given by Meyer Hatchery
Emphasis mine.

Characteristics
Class: Hybrid
Origin:
Comb Type: Single
Egg Color: Off-White/Tinted
Egg Size: Large
Production: Excellent
Matures:
Bird Size: Hens 5lbs, Roosters 6.5lbs.
Broody: No
Hardiness: Heat and Cold Hardy
Personality: Quite, tame and docile

This is Daisy the past few days.

She is trying to sleep in the nest box. She doesn't want to leave the nest box. She isn't laying an egg. The website LIED!!! Priscilla isn't hanging around the nest boxes as much and now Daisy is taking up the fight. Doesn't she know that she is too young to be going broody? Omgosh! This is ridiculous!

They sell it. There’s a whole aisle dedicated to canned crap.

I refuse to buy canned soup. Soup is ridiculously easy to make and I don't put half the salt in that they do nor do I overcook it into mush. Besides, it's an awesome way to use up the vegetables!

That black bean soup I made last night? Done in 30 minutes and I started with DRY beans! Pressure cooker voodoo magic...

The worst concert I've seen was Paul Simon. I swear they switched the album on and just he went through the motions. And Bob Dylan opened. I'm not sure the he knew what was saying and the rest of us sure couldn't tell. Heck, I'm not even sure he knew what planet he was on.

The best was Prince "In the Round". Smallish venue and terrific seats. There sure the heck wasn't any lip syncing going on at his shows!

Foo Fighters Break A Leg was a close second.

But I've been to a fair number of concerts. After all, I went from Minneapolis to Nashville. I feel sad for people who can't enjoy the experience.

Thanks for feeling for us but in my case dont do it too much as this is the fuel to keep me going when i am an empty nester. My home would be so Empty without the three toddlers running through it when that day comes i am Sure it will be heart wrenching. However i will have a bucket list. That said, seeing the foo fighters mustve been amazing!!! Theres a great documentary on them on netflix.

I saw a thread yesterday where two of someone's white leghorns went Broody and hatched some chicks from their EE roo and if I recall they were youngins. Guess you never know where or when a mother hen will pop up. She's a cutie btw!

Thx! This is the pic that Meyer's has posted for Austra White. I really liked the look of her, didn't have any that looked like her and wanted a white egg layer. So I expected mine to look more like the pic but she doesn't and I am sooooo ok with it. I think she is beautiful! Her feathers are almost sheer like. I don't know how to explain it. They remind me of sheer curtains. It's just gorgeous to me. I just don't want nor need any more babies.

That's because it's illegal to sell it in normal states.
