I have found this wonderful eggs, imported from Spain, in our supermarket I really love their color. Do any of you know which COMERSIAL breed lay this eggs?

I wonder if they spin off of the Penadasencas that @ChickenCanoe likes so much?

Yes Banty city slickers like me own chain saws and 4 wheel drives.

I know right. . I can't believe there weren't people around helping clear the roads. When we had that bad ice storm several years back everyone who owned a chain saw and a four wheel drive was out and about helping neighbors clear roads and cut up fallen branches.

We had to form a possie (is that right Banty?) The County and etc was too busy to let us out of our cage. 2 of the neighbors didn't want to help but one of them was the first to shoot thru the hole. Still just a hole carved out for single lane traffic today.

Why wouldn't you? Everyone should.

@Akrnaf2 I said related to the Penadasenca because you should see how dark the egg is that I got from either a leghorn or a Rhode Island Red bred to the cock he gave me. The brown eggs are very dark and the olive I got is gorgeous.

I have done some Googling and found that they use only hybrids for egg production in Spain

So I think I will pass the try.....

I guess I should have kept reading before I posted.

Get a 9x13 pan and grease it. Crack the egg into it and the bake them until set.

Pigs do not care how well the eggs are cooked

Axualey() 42 eggs.. they had some positive growth. They were set last Saturday. Incubator Died yesterday. I tryed to fiddle with it but gave up. My other one is a full capacity. But working.. not a total loss.
I have 3 feeder pigs born last june, they need lots of protein. Tonight, boiled soy beans and scrambled embryos.. film at eleven.

Oh chit. I'm too late.
They woulda been fine. They can easily live 12-60 hours cold.
