Do I dare eat the eggs?

This is a REALLY strange thread...

Not really that strange, alot of people
don't know that what a hen eats won't come out in the egg. I let my grand childern use an incubator in the class room. One day while I was there, a chick pecked at a pile of poop. Seeing this one classmate went crazy, yelling that he would never eat chicken again. If a person was to follow a chicken around and watched what it ate while free ranging, they might never eat eggs again. In both Sacramento and Reno (the school distracts where the kids are), you ask the class where eggs come from and they will answer,
the store. They have no idea that they come from a chicken. Not just grade school, two in high school. One of the other parent was there as a hen laid an egg. She saw the area it came out of and stated she would never eat another egg. Thinking it came from the butt and not the vent.

I'm no chicken anatomy expert, but I'm thinking a salamander head in the egg would be the equivilant to a woman giving birth to a Cornish X because she ate some chicken, and according to my 7th grade sex ed teacher, that's pretty much impossible.

No, no. parents and eggs are two very different things!

Lol. Yuck.

Well there should be no problem eating it because the ovaries of a chicken are no way connected to the stomach of the chicken. Like, whatever a chicken eats is not going to end up in the eggs... or around the eggs.
They both go through different processors

I know the salamander won't come out in the egg !!!!!!

It would be like us giving birth to things we'd eaten.

I just have an over active imagination (remember The Fly?)

You know, eating salamanders is way more savory than the stuff they feed the poor birds in factory farms

, including:

1)stale chewing gum still in its wrapper
2)chicken litter (i.e, droppings and shavings)
3)lots of animal byproducts
4)gross medicine stuff
5) lots more icky things

Yummy!

I'm so glad I actually put that into my MOUTH!!!

And LinckHillPoultry, I disagree, I read in several places that yes what a chicken eats DOES affect the egg,

for example if you feed a chicken onions the eggs will taste like onion. But just because they taste strong, not because the ovary is connedcted to the stomach. I fed Olympia some chili pepper seeds she LOVED them (figures), but I think my dad puts so much Tobasco on his eggs that he didn't notice. Another example is if your chicken eats lots of greens the yolk will be more orange. But no salamander heads, don't worry!
