The absolute BEST INVESTMENT I made this year, was the purchase of three hens!!Congratulations! I've come close to buying hens a few times over the years. Perhaps one of these days...

Unwashed eggs stay edible longer on the counter.
No a selling point to me…but that’s the thought process.
To: Vermont Lt
Yep! We don’t wash ours. We put them in the hen basket, right next to the stove.

No one cares where the “chicken yards” are - its what comes out of the back of grocery stores they pay attention to.

For the first time since I can recall, farm eggs are hard to come by as they are now cheaper than supermarket eggs. Fortunately I am surrounded by local farms so I can usually find them if I get out early.
No matter how high they go, I have to have my eggs. Very important part of my diet and I eat 2-3 a days.

I have to used Commerical refrigerators I store my eggs plus an egg washing machine. I will not sell unwashed eggs anymore, thankfully this woman stopped coming after a few times.

They just aren’t hungry enough for eggs, yet.

That seems to be true...paid $1.99/dozen for large brown eggs from ‘cage free’ chickens last week...store brand was $3.99/dozen.

That is my thinking...I donate eggs to my Church’s food pantry and the people who come are grateful in getting them.

Eggzellent points. Eggs are versatile and necessary in many recipes. I also like that they have a reasonable shelf life.
Have a good supply on hand for making Christmas deviled eggs. They are always a hit during the family gatherings.

The mysterious bird flu.. what is this like the 10th year. Created, for what purpose? Surely it’s just “for our good”.

“They make it sound as if 58 million chickens were killed by the flu, instead of by flock extermination.”
Same difference and the only way to slow the problem.
