Maybe your deaf and just don't know it.

After all I take it that you don't hear that rooster crowing.

Or maybe you have a non crowing rooster.

I hope that when you get chicks to hatch that I can have one of those non crowing roosters.

I think I would be willing to pay big bucks for one of those.

Oh! wait I must have one, because I have lots of eggs in the nesting boxes everyday too.

I wonder what he looks like.

Wow very cool, you taught me something I did not know. I didn't know that there was a difference, but then I have always lived on the west coast.

WHAT?!?!?! I've seen Pasture-Raised... but not Pasteur-ized... that's really weird.

I think, if i remember correctly from college, they roll the eggs through a hot water bath consistently for a certain amount of time and temperature. It never made sense to me how or why that manages to pasteurize them, but I don't think the food industry always makes sense anyway.
This! this is why we get weird comments about eggs people!
The strange non informative videos they show in schools. It's evil! it's a curse it's cruel it's... hey look a chicken *wanders off*

I believe that in order to pasteurize something you need to raise the temperature to 160 degrees. That is hot enough to kill salmonella and yet not cook the egg. So a hot water bath would be one way of getting the job done. And it would be a cheap way of doing it too.

Not chicken related but since I started developing this little hobby farm six years ago, my sister and her children often stare at the food I fix with trepidation. I am always feeding them things I've raised, grown, or foraged for.

One thanks giving I made a squash casserole and my niece who was about stared at the pan and said " uhhh what's that?"
Me: "squash casserole"
long pause
Niece: "umm..... what did you squash in there?"

Then the first time I serve home raised chicken, it was a mean rooster that was always attacking it. After dinner I announced that the bird I served was he rooster everyone feared. I expected my niece and nephew to be upset and instead they both cheered simultaneously.
I asked them if they knew why i did it, and my 6 year old nephew said sagely " for revenge"
After I stopped laughing I told him we should never kill something in revenge but went on to explain how I couldn't have a mean bird and i was not going to kill it and waste its meat. and my nephew said " well revenge is a good reason for killing something if your going to eat it too"

Well I couldn't really argue with that logic

You have a wise nephew Kristy. I like his reasoning. If it helps we ate my sisters favorite rooster. She couldn't keep him, and neither could I, so rather than waste his life we enjoyed French Rooster stew.

It is too bad you didn't ask the woman just where she thought eggs came from. Then you could have told us. I, for one, would really like to know. I'll bet a lot of others would like to know, too.

rumor has it the stork brings them
