Non-eating as in not eating this pair. Future offspring or eggs are fair game. This pair was obviously someone's beloved pet until they couldn't be kept any longer.

Sorry but, here where I live I can barely get 2.50!! There are just too many other people who have chickens, so the demand isn't there, I know it seems like a loosing proposition, but some money is better than no money, and I only sell the extras I don't eat myself.

Anyone else want to exchange seeds? or share seeds? or?

Have you guys had any experience with green zebra tomatoes?? I just saw it on The Victory Garden?? They say they are sweet like red ones, they are just green?? Just curious, I wouldn't even know where to get something like that??

My husband said the pineapple tomatoes I grew this year were great and non-bitter... also they were gorgeous colors, nice texture for slicing, a good fresh eating tomato. I was not impressed with the texture of some bush tomatoes bred by park that I grew... and I always plant a lot of romas.

there are a ton of green tomatoes out there... I have not tried the zebra ones but I am ordering tiger striped cherry toms this yeah to try... I like all the different flavors but try to stay with heirloom/older varieties so they have the acid content needed to can without pressure cooking.
(the newer varieties have had the acid bred out to make them "sweeter" but in fact the acid is a good thing!)

BTW RW~~~
The Tigerella did not do really well last year, started on heat matts, then in the heated "hot frame" then some in the green house & some outside.
neither did really what I would call "good".
They were very tall, kinda lanky, required much staking besides the cage, and all in all got medium sized barely striped slicers, hardly worth the space, $ & effort.
My Dad raised some last year that were fantastic....I will call him & find out what they were again.

birdnbeast came from Oregon with a neighbor (who already had some Pea Fowl) and got them.
