That’s def next level. So you had fresh eggs too? I don’t think I’ve ever had fresh eggs, but have always wanted to try them.

Yea, feather plucking doesn’t sound like much fun at all. !

Yes. we had fresh eggs. We kept quite a few hens and one rooster over the wintertime and it was my job to tend them. Every morning before school I lugged 5 gallon buckets of hot water to the far corner of our 5 acre lot to put in their frozen water trough. I also broke up the ice on the pond so the ducks could swim. Occasionally, I’d see them swim around under the ice and then come back out through the hole I’d made.
