Interesting article on egg production.

Know about your food!

I pay 7 bucks a dozen for eggs. happily. And its not because I feel cool spending more on food. I do it because Ive seen production method commodity "farming" and it scares me.

We have a farm about 2 miles from my house that has cage free non-antibotic eggs they sell there along with all organic fruits and vegetables. They only down side it that they are not too big and only have 3-4 items that are in season. Right now they have blueberries, rasberries and potatos along with eggs. I am more than willing to pay more for their eggs knowing they are about as natural and as fresh as they can be.

In most cities in Portland you can have up to 4 chickens I think, but you cannot have roosters within city limits. One of our friends have a big garden and 4 chickens that are just starting to lay eggs for the first time.

I know someone who got her own chickens, but got rid off them. She said they were the most expensive eggs ever.

Brian has his own chickens; I think he likes having them.

The chicken or the egg? Which is first in his heart?

 

[BigRedRage]

how many bites does it take to get to the center of the chickens desires?

 

[Mulli]

We should poach some of them to see if they are any good.

 

[Shane]

Screw that ill gladly continue to pay 1.69 for my dozen caged chicken eggs
