just leaned against the kitchen counter with a pocket full of eggs...

Are you kidding? I had 5 in one pocket and without thinking, started getting 50 lb. bags out of the truck to stock in the barn when I suddenly remembered why I had a wet feeling against my shirt...

Brownies--that's another story! But then you need a 44mag or better.

Yesterday I put a few quail eggs on the truck seat so I would not break them. You guessed it. Somebody came and I moved the truck so they could turn around easier. I jumped in without thinking. YUK

Eggs in my pocket is how I found out my heavy down filled parka is washable.

OUCH.

Happened to me at least once, with one in each pocket. SPLAT!
Despite that, I refuse to learn my lesson and routinely store eggs in my pockets when a basket isn't available. I TRY to be more careful now though.

Last week a pack of 30 coyotes were sighted less than two miles from my house. Then SEVERAL somethings crashed through the hedgerow while I was locking up my birds right after dark this past Saturday night. Of course I didn't have the gun with me that time! When I spotlighted the hegderow, two pairs of eyes glowed back at me.

I don't care what variety of canine they might have been. They were in my yard, checking out my chickens. I lost 22 babies last June in a single night. I have better fences now, but I won't hesitate to shoot if I think I'm in any sort of danger.

No pocket omelettes for us yet. Just purchased an Amish egg gathering basket since we now have too many at a time to put in our pockets.
