Sprouting Seed Chart

I've been thinking of sprouting my own seeds...interesting and very healthy. Still need to purchase a seed lid.

Testing Eggs

Our hens are kicking it into high gear!! We are getting anywhere between 6-9 eggs a day....whoo hoo!

Last month we started selling them and hope to have a solid customer base built up in the next few weeks. Currently I am about 3 dozen ahead. We are planning on putting a sign up in the yard in case we have neighbors who would like to purchase them locally rather than at the market.

I always find it interesting what questions people ask about fresh eggs...questions always come up like: "Do you have to have a rooster for hens to lay eggs?" or "How long do fresh eggs last?"...or "Do fresh eggs taste better?". If you have chickens ...you know the questions...lol.

If, in the event, we end up keeping our eggs for longer than a month...I test them by the following method. Have no idea who came up with this but it has always worked for me!
