Drumroll.........

.... and Here's DD's completed sci fair poster. This year she tested the shell strength of our backyard eggs Vs. store eggs. We bought 3 doz store eggs and she picked out the 10 good ones for testing, plus another 10 eggs from our flock. Then she made an egg smasher, placed each testing egg inside the holder, and gradually added weight until the shell cracked. It took several eggs to get the set up just right, so some of those extras were added to the casualty list. The smashed eggs were cooked up for some happy chickens. As expected, the backyard eggs were far stronger.
