He put alot of time into his birds, and since he is the SOLE provider, if you want your hands on them, theres your chance...

No,No,don't need any golden eggs! I'm more in the free or cheap category!I'm not serious enough about chickens that way. But it is fascinating and hey if people can afford to spend that kinda money,go for it.
BTW,not sure if you understood the 'give a new egg a break ' comment was for people accusing me of complaining about the price when I just wanted some info on why they are worth so much and now I know,THANKS!
