First Run of Cornish Cross Meat Birds and Super Excited!

[lpatelski]

Four weeks on feed and grass.

They look very healthy, hunting and pecking...like me early in the morning while trying to type.

I had a dozen of "my" fresh eggs in the motel icebox. They froze.... since I'm boiling shrimp I figured what the heck,lets see what happens. After ten minutes I took the eggs out. They were perfect!! AND they peeled easier than any eggs I've tried to peel BEFORE.

Is there ANY reason NOT to freeze eggs in the shell???

Is there ANY reason NOT to freeze eggs in the shell???

not if they work that good. I wouldn't think so. Maybe a slight loss of nutrients as with most food we freeze.

 

[JRNash]

Fresh eggs are a major pain to peel,Im going to try some more when i get back home

Eggs crack and break when frozen.

Now I understand those of you living in GatorLand do not understand this basic concept. I happen to harvest cracked broken eggs 9 months out of the year up here in the Artic.


BTW We pray for global warming to kick in soon, regardless of what a certain overweight Ex- Veep says...

 

[JRNash]

Ralph,out of a dozen only one cracked and it boiled just fine.

 

[JRNash]

I normally crack them anyway if I'm putting them in gumbo or crab boil so the seasoning gets into the egg
