What's really cool now is that I actually have a waiting list for my eggs. I just started by giving them away to family members and people at work, and everybody loves them so much they want them now and are offering me money. I've always knew free range organic eggs are better but many people still don't believe this. Believe it or not, my mother won't even eat my eggs because she doesn't think they're safe; I think they're a hell of a lot safer than eggs at the store. I only got 5 hens so I may consider getting more since so many people are liking my eggs now which is cool. I've always been a huge promoter and supporter of organic stuff, and I really like proving that this is the way to go. I give away stuff out of my garden too which is completely organic and people always say it's the best whatever. Even though the canelope seed packet says to use fertilizer, I grew the best cantilope I ever ate out of pure compost, no fertilizer. I can really see business potential for organic eggs if people start to recognize how much better they are. I actually did an experiment with store bought regular white, brown cage free, and my eggs. My eggs had a much more golden yoke than both and was less runny. Once cooked, I tasted all three and found mine much better

Homegrown (and made) is always best!
 
-sigh- My midget white turkey eggs came a day later than I expected, so they got set today instead of yesterday. My eggs from my turkeys got set Friday (some per pushing 5-6 days old). I can see now this is going to be a seriously messed up hatch. I can't wait for the automatic water bucket for the Sportsman. It will make these staggered hatches so much easier on me.

would you trust your everyday routine enough to eat one of those eggs raw, if so then keep doing what your doing.........not to gross anyone out, but that's the bottom line.......are you comfortable with what you are doing, I gave up trying to convince others of the differences...

and yes, i have eaten my own eggs raw, but would not even think of doing that with store bought....
 
I am in search of a recipe from all the great cooks on here....

I used up the last of my beef stock today.....it is good but, hubby hates when I make it cause I simmer those bones for days on the stove, and well he hates to see the stove on that long........ssooooo... does anyone have another way that I can try... It needs to make alot at one time and be cannable
 
This looks like hubby trying to tell me what he wants done in the garden, of course I am ignoring him..

i just made some with my slow cooker on high, i'm afraid to leave my gas stove on that lows, gas scares me if i'm not able to watch it.
do you skim the fat off it?
 
Question to all of you dual bird folks (chicken and duck)...... do any of you house them together? I just read two different threads, and it seems to go both ways.... and some said they feed the same feed to both.... any input, I am considering adding 2 ducks to our little abode. I think I might have BIRD FEVER!! Or mid life crisis... lol.
