In Reply to: Home raised eggs, cost more, but are worth it. posted by Ralphwd45 on December 07, 2013 at 00:53:34:

When we raised chickens (when the kids were here) we had chickens and put chicken wire across the top as well as the sides stretched over a treated board frame. Our problems were primarily Opossoms which would dig under the frame but putting additional wire out, like you do to keep a dog in a fence worked.

A few sell farm eggs around here but I don't buy them because I know not of their history and I have to bother the farmer when I want some. They usually go for $2 a dozen. The eggs I buy are about $3.80 in the store.

I buy Egg-land's best Cage Free from the local grocery stores. Vegetarian fed hens, large brown. Yokes are orange and are advertised to be an excellent source of D, B12, E and a good source of B2 and B5. Plus 115mg Omega 3 and 25% less saturated fat than regular eggs. You can almost throw the egg into the skillet and the yoke will stand up like a young lady's ..... The 2 of us go through a couple of dozen a week and pass our cholesterol tests at our annual or less blood tests. I don't worry about it anyway as I take Coenzyme Q-10 which keeps the pipes soft and prevents problems associated with the blockage, if there is any.

Works for me.

Mark

Today's Featured Article - History of the Nuffield Tractor - by Anthony West. The Nuffield tractor story started in early 1945. The British government still reeling from the effects of the war on the economy, approached the Nuffield organization to see if they would design and build an "ALL NEW" British built wheeled tractor, suitable for both British and world farming. ...
