this may seem a little strange...

but how many of you have ever owned chickens? since we'll be moving soon im looking into places that allow chickens, and am looking forward to some fresh eggs. I just wanted to know if anyone here had personal experience.
and, for future reference, who lives in colorado and would be willing to take any surplus eggs? i don't know where we'll move to yet, but i figure i will eventually have more eggs than i can eat. my head is full of chickens!

 

Ever since I went to my friends house and noticed he had two chickens in his backyard for eggs I've wanted some of my own.. but my parents don't want any more animals

 

i want a rooster and a hen

so badly
you can sing them the i love my little rooster song by almeda riddle

 

you should let the surplus eggs hatch. so you can have some tasty chicken in the future.

 

My dad has a couple of chickens

 

:cheers2: Homegrown chicken is the bomb

 

@OP.. take what eggs you dont think you will use at the time and beat them and put them in either empty milk cartons or freezer bags and put them in your freezer and when you need them thaw them out for scrambled eggs or whatever

 

or you could do the same with the chickens, just like the chinese do.

 

ahahaaa
you can put it in the freezer?

 

^^^ eggs? yea.. just not in the shell.. that would be stupid

 

my old neighbor had like 10 chickens. i have no idea what they did with all the eggs though.

 

ahah yea eggs cool
they would probably taste weird after they thawed out wouldn't they?

 

i know this one kid that has chickens
and he sells the eggs to his neighbors
its cute

 

yeah i had chickens for a few years. only had 3 so never really had extra eggs.

 

youve done it havent you

 

^lol.


i like the idea OP, sounds cool =)

 

umm.. how do you think scrambled eggs come in at a restaurant? they are frozen in bags that you can boil

 

im talking big restaurants.. not your mom and pop diner

 

im gettin a dishwashin job in january

 

never apply for dishie at a restaurant.. if anything apply for prep cook.. you do small tasks.. and you get paid more than a dishie usually and you dont need experience for the most part...

when i first got into the restaurant biz i applied for dishwasher or prep cook.. and they told me those positions were filled but if i would be interested in cooking.. i was like hell yea.. skipped all the bullshit
