Eggs.... OH My! Another one throwing "fear" on a gullible population and an attempt to raise prices beyond reason and taking you and me to the cleaners financially.
I made the comment to my wife, just this morning, that maybe we should get another chicken. We had one from around the year 2000 to 2004. It was a hen (female) and she laid the absolute best eggs imaginable. She lived in the house and we put a diaper on her (really), went camping with us, rode a bicycle with us, went on hikes with us, ate everything from worms to fried potatoes to ice cream, to rice, to bacon, steak, actually, everything we ate, she had the scraps. Her eggs were marvelous.
She laid about every 36 hours and let the entire world know (vocally) when she was laying.
We have the property, a good location, and the past knowledge of chickens to do it again. We'd turn her into a pet and of course, she'd travel with us.
Easter is coming up. Chicks are usually available at TSC (Tractor Supply Company) around that time of year. I wonder if the price per chick will go up form 25 cents a chicken to 25 DOLLARS a chick this year!
