eggs aren't sinking.
In just a year they've increased in price by an average of $1.25/ dozen.

Here is one I bet you don’t know. You know you have enough salt in your brine water for curing hams when an egg will float in it.

A little Sunday morning trivia......
Trivia is eggsactly right.
We eat brown eggs but I know the color of the egg is just a shell game. Doesn’t really matter.
The signals given off by dietitians regarding the nutritional benefits of eggs are a little scrambled these days. Good or bad?
If you don’t spin test your eggs before you buy them you might get a raw deal. Buyer beware.
Well, that’s it for me. Criticize me if you will for being punny but I’m a pretty hard boiled type.

“The chicken is one of the first domestic animals, appearing in China around 1400 BC.” - bunk.
The Bactrian Camel was domesticated in SW Asia around 7500 BC - even before the horse.

Using what? A boiled, raw, or stale egg as an indicator.

So are the grain fed, cage free, omega 3-filled, brown eggs a come-on?

Does someone have a sure-fire way to make hardboiled eggs in a crock pot? I've tried a bunch of ways and none of 'em work.

A fresh raw egg. Grandma would have a big wooden barrell filled with water and would add salt untill an egg would float. Then they would put in the fresh hams after butchering and let them soak up the brine water before hanging them in the smoke house.

White-shelled eggs are produced by hens with white feathers and white ear lobes. Brown-shelled eggs are produced by hens with red feathers and red ear lobes. same for white cows/ white milk, brown cows/chocolate milk?

Brown-shelled eggs are produced by hens with red feathers and red ear lobes. Brown egg layers usually are slightly larger and require more food, thus brown eggs usually cost more than white eggs. The color of shell is a factor of diet. You can change the color by changing the diet.

Can someone please post a picture of a chicken. I want to see what a chicken’s ear looks like.

What I do is boil the water, put the eggs in and turn the heat off. Then wait 15 mins, take em out and cool them in cold water.
I've never tried in a crockpot, but it should work if you can get water to boil.

I have chickens more or less for fun. I have about 10 different breeds. The French Favorelles and the sweetest innately tame little twits I have. They are six toed, smallish and very pretty. I get about 15-20 eggs a day and give them away to neighbors and friends.
I have an Andalusian Rooster who is constantly on the attack. He has punched a few holes in my leg. To discourage sneak attacks,I have to beat him every morning as it is the only way I can safely feed the horses.
I get a kick out of my chickens! and eggs too!
