Why wait to have a big event (wedding bash) if in the years waiting your loved ones leave and can't share the love, hugs, smiles? Example: my Mom was in a car wreck and died suddenly...my son of 38 was recently killed, my daughter moved over 700 miles away and wouldn't be bothered to come for the buriel because of kids schedules and pets-livestock. Life is too unpredictable...a few years and , pooof.
Some of the chicks hatched from pink eggs. My Ameraucana is white/gray.
I would love to see pics of your ameraucana!
Praying for you both and your families I hope you don't mind. We had to place my Grandpa in a facility last December for Alzheimer's. I've helped be his care taker and I lived with my grandparents for 4 years before moving in with my future husband. Watching Grandpa decline has been heartbreaking as he basically replace my father when I was a child.
He is less and less lucid but he can still come to family get togethers. Things are declining more rapidly now and I fear he will not live to see my wedding in another year or two by the time we have enough saved.
The facility is wonderful only 8 dementia/Alzheimer's patients are cared for there the rest of the facility is assisted living. We are very blessed to have found such a place. Grandpa is cared for very well.
Sending hugs and prayers to the both of you.
Yes, that would apply here. If they don't stink, but you don't want to chance eating them, feed them to your chickens! It's great protein for them. I usually scramble them for them, but if I'm feeling lazy, I just crack them open into a container (or onto the ground) and they gobble them up. Then I crunch up the shells real good (so they don't look like eggs) and toss those in as well. The egg shells are a good source of calcium. The reason you crush up the shells is so they don't look like eggs ( you don't want to "teach" your chickens that eggs are yummy or you may develop an egg eater). I don't mind when they eat them when I give them to them, but I don't want to have a hen that "helps herself" to an egg or 2 in the nest box!
My dog loves it when I share the eggs with her. Plus it is suppose to be good for dogs coats too!
My daughter usually grabs all the hard boiled eggs! Or they get me to make deviled eggs, those don't last long around here! When I have a weak shelled egg, or one that is cracked I just crack them on top of my dogs bowl of food & she gobbles it right up! I think she would gobble it up not matter how I fixed them for her. She is a black lab, they are know for being food hogs!
