| Sunny-Side Up |
Yum!! Nothing is better than a free-range, rich yellow egg sunny-side-up! The fresher the egg, the more the white stands up, and these are no exception. We had always got our eggs from a local farmer who has natural feed and large barns for his hens, and we thought those were much better than grocery store eggs. We didn’t know they could get better—these eggs are truly liquid gold! Here is a riddle I read once about an egg.
In marble halls as white as milk,
Lined with a skin as soft as silk,
Within a fountain crystal-clear,
A golden apple doth appear;
No doors there are to this stronghold,
Yet thieves break in and steal the gold.

Sweet - very sweet!
"Gold" is about right after all you went through for those chickens. Great job!
That must be rewarding to eat your own chicken eggs.
Am I invited for breakfast?!
Have you tried hatching your own eggs yet?
No, we never tried hatching while we had a rooster. But it would be really fun to do sometime!
