But while this versatile ingredient is simple and humble, being safe when handling eggs is of the utmost importance. Although eggs are uncomplicated for the most part, they can still be susceptible to bacteria that can cause illnesses in humans. Even fresh eggs that have just been lain can be contaminated if they come from poorly maintained chicken coops. But what is the best way to handle chicken eggs?

Even poultry farm professionals do it to check on the embryos in big batches of fertilized eggs to make sure everything is going okay with each chick.

It's a fun activity to perform even with children, as long as they're extra careful with the eggs. Want to candle your chicken eggs to check on them at home? Here's a step-by-step guide to doing so without having to buy expensive candling machines or specialized lamps. Full: https://www.coolchickenbreeds.com/candling-chicken-eggs/

If you follow me on Instagram - which you should - you will see that I am getting lit on fire right now by conservatives for debunking Newsmax's claim that DirecTV dropped them over their conservative values. This claim is simply not true. Newsmax wanted DirecTV to pay them and DirecTV said they did not have enough subscribers to warrant it. Despite DirecTV currently having Fox News and The First, Newsmax fabricated a conspiracy of censorship and plenty of conservatives are buying it. Similarly, there is a national egg shortage that has no shortage of theories explaining it. Some popular conservative commentators are claiming COVID vaccines are responsible while others say a government conspiracy is afoot to starve the population. I am lately perpetually disappointed in a conservative movement that claims to value truth while buying into conspiracies aimed at flaming their preconceived notions. If truth still matters, it should matter all the time. Here's what I mean...

You have a coop full of chickens and you're wondering if it's time to set out on the adventure of selling farm fresh eggs. Let's take a look at some of the pros and cons that come along with the decision to sell chicken eggs from your homestead. (Don't want to read all the words? This blog post is also a podcast—just press the triangle play button on the little black bar at the top of this post!) Reasons to sell chicken eggs Free eggs/Extra income If you work things correctly, deciding to sell chicken eggs from your homestead can help cover the cost of your own eggs—essentially creating a situation where the eggs you personally use are free. In some locations, selling chicken eggs may bring you extra money above and beyond your cost. Responsibility Kids learn that money can be earned from work, and they see the process of caring for the chickens, collecting the eggs, and selling those to earn a little money. These real life skills can be honed early when you let your kids help sell chicken eggs. If your kids are old enough, you can even "put them in charge" of your homestead's egg business. Build a customer base When you decide to sell chicken eggs, it's an easy way to draw customers in for other items you might eventually sell from your homestead. Just like chickens seem to be the gateway animal, eggs can be the gateway product. Things to consider if you decide to sell chicken eggs... There are rules to follow There is a big difference between selling a couple dozen chicken eggs from your coop to your friends, and selling several dozen a week at local farmers' markets. Be aware of the rules about selling eggs where you live and do business. Finding customers can be tough In order to successfully sell chicken eggs, you need customers. The best set up is having lots of customers with little competition—which can be hard to come by in the country where everyone and their neighbor has extra eggs to sell. If you live in an area where people will pay $6 a dozen, or you're willing to drive to those people—and you don't have 13 other small farms trying to sell to those same customers—then you've got an advantage to this whole egg thing. But many people I've come across have a rough time finding enough regular, reliable customers to do more than cover the cost of their own eggs, let alone make extra money doing it. It's an ever-changing game of numbers When deciding to sell chicken eggs from your farm, there are some numbers you need to consider. How many chickens do you have, how many eggs do they lay a week, and how much does it cost to feed those chickens? Next, how many eggs do you need to sell per week to a) break even b) cover the cost of your own eggs, or c) make a profit? Now, what do you think about those numbers? Are you considering selling more eggs? Does that require getting more hens? How much will it cost to feed more hens? If your hens free range, they will cost less to feed. But free range hens don't always lay their eggs in the coop, which means egg hunts—and potentially less eggs found. When our chickens were free ranged and we sold eggs, if we found a random nest out in the woods or in the hayloft, we'd keep those eggs for ourselves, but not sell them to customers. I had no way of knowing how old those eggs were, and without candling them, I wouldn't know if someone had been sitting on them at one point. It's one thing if I break open a bad egg or half developed chick. But if my customers do, that's no good at all. More questions to consider: What do you do when chickens flat out stop laying consistently? Do you get more chickens or do you cut your amount of customers? What do you do when you buy more chickens and suddenly have more eggs than customers? How much do you need to charge per dozen to make your egg business worth running? And, more importantly, will customers in your area pay those prices? Dealing with customers can be tricky

Interestingly, Edward’s journey with the Thought For Food Challenge did not end with his team’s victory. Instead, along with a small team of enthusiastic volunteers, they expanded the reach of this challenge worldwide, inspiring innovative ideas from young people across the globe. Host Amy Pearl, Executive Director, Hatch Innovation Guests Edward Silva, Co Founder of Henlight In this episode you’ll learn Edwards story, and the way he drew on his own experiences to come up with a novel innovation. How the Thought For Food Challenge incentivized the innovations behind Henlight. The story of Edward’s journey after winning the challenge, and how an ambassador network allows Thought For Food to expand their global reach. Examples of winners and innovations from the Thought For Food Challenge. How incentive based prizes inspire innovations in areas that may be lacking new ideas. More about Edward Silva I believe in leveraging the power of technology to create a more food secure world. As a Prize Developer at XPrize and co-founder of Henlight – a solar powered solution to help small-scale poultry farmers – I actively support building a bridge to a more abundant future by leveraging appropriate technology. Throughout my career, I have been afforded the opportunity to participate in an array of activities in the U.S. and abroad related to food, agriculture, and renewable/natural resources . Winning the 2013 Thought for Food Challenge, being selected as U.S. Delegate for the Y20 Summit, studying international agricultural development at the University of California, Davis and most recently serving as Executive Director of Thought For Food, have allowed me to gain a unique global perspective on how to develop products and solutions in a more creative, open, and innovative way.

It said, 'You're an asshole.'"-Demetri MartinJust RememberWhen you have a 'I Hate My Job' day, [even if retired you have those sometimes] try this: On your way home from work, stop at your pharmacy and go to the thermometer section and purchase a rectal thermometer made by Johnson & Johnson. Be very sure you get this brand. When you get home, lock your doors, draw the curtains and disconnect the phone so you will not be disturbed. Change into very comfortable clothing and sit in your favorite chair. Open the package and remove the thermometer. Now, carefully place it on a table or a surface so that it will not become chipped or broken. Now the fun part begins. Take out the literature from the box and read it carefully. You will notice that in small print there is a statement: 'Every Rectal Thermometer made by Johnson & Johnson is personally tested and then sanitized.' Now, close your eyes and repeat out loud five times, 'I am so glad I do not work in the thermometer quality control department at Johnson & Johnson.'

It usually starts with her going in for the passionate kiss, and me finding myself laughing on the inside- for no reason. Then, the whole "glasses on top of glasses" image pops into my head, and I start shaking. She breaks off the hotness, and glares at me- and then I just lose it.It usually ends with her saying "god damn it" and walking off.That happened to me once, but I kept managing to get it under control, at which point she would try to kiss me again. Of course, this would cause me to laugh uncontrollably once again. It went on for at least 5 minutes before she finally walked away in disgust.

The best moments of my childhood was when I combined both of those.Stilist wrote: You punched your own wang?Aquabat wrote: Thunder punchedAnd here is the post that I will be submitting to that threadThe summer before this incident I was working in the restaurant of this local amusement park and my job consisted of taking out the garbage and sweeping up. The garbage bags were pretty heavy and I got pretty good at throwing full garbage bags (20 pounds) up into the compactor (about 7 feet up and 10 feet away) after the quick realization that 7 day old fast food and 30 degree heat gave the area around it a smell that was on the high end of the funk-o-meter.Now on with the story it's a year later and I'm cleaning the bathrooms - a much better job than cleaning up food (better pay, better hours and better boss) - and it's the men’s room so far less mess. Anyway this day one of the guys says he has to leave early and asks for me to close up the bathrooms for him. I say ok but make arrangements for him to close for me a night later. So I'm alone and I'm on the last of the 4 bathrooms, the one that is closest to the punch clock but usually the worst to clean up because it's closest to the water park. Everything’s done and I just need to change the garbage in the change room. Now the change room has a baby change table so the change room garbage always has 5 or 10 dirty diapers making it far heavier then the others (the other generally just have a few pieces of food but are full of wet paper towel) which was why I left it for last. So, I change it out and it being a long weekend, it is a bit fuller than normal - it's about 15 pounds of dead weight in a very small package. Now the last thing I need to do is walk the garbage bag full of baby poo over to the gate, open the gate, drop the garbage bag on the ground anywhere on the other side and punch out. I don't even have to stop, there is no way a normal person can screw this up.But I'm a teenager, and I’m male, and most of all I’m ME. Normal is what I swore I would be after I did this. So I'm walking towards the gate (10 feet high) and my brain says to me"I bet we could get this bag over the gate.""NO!” I say back to my brain."Why not?” says my brain “These bags aren’t any heavier than the ones from last year, and besides you've been working out.""Ok, you’ve got a point," I say."And that fence isn't that high and this thing is double bagged...come on you can do it or have you gone soft, you pussy?”"Yah I can" I think.But if I'm going to do this, if I'm going go through with this stupendous act of bad judgment then by god, I'm going to do it right.So looking around and making sure that no one was in the immediate area I grabbed the bag with both hands and give it a good 720 degree spin around me let go AND…….HELL YA it clears the fence.But I don't hear the expected, satisfying thump of the bag landing on the other side. So running up to the fence I find that my boss is now occupying the space directly under the garbage bag and that is when my body took over and ran my ass the long way around to my car and I took off, swearing the whole time, and trying to figure out what to do from the safety of my parents couch.The next day the guy that I took over for got fired. Turns out that he didn't punch out and my boss just assumed that I had forgotten to. And from that day forth I've been trying to be normal. And then this happened…FMCAfter doing my Taxes this weekend I had this ideaAre taxes a form of charitable giving?Well it could be let me check off a few things about taxes.First, they go to a large, non profit organization (a.k.a. “The Government).As we all know, the government doesn't make money - those who run it do - but the actual government not so much, very much like a charity.Those who run the biggest charities have huge salaries much like the government.Most of our taxes goes towards a lot of causes and also office work and facilities - a lot like charities.Money goes to flood victims, feeding the poor, education, health care, infrastructure of all of this, and I'm willing to bet, a few other countries that need it. Much like other charities.You can give more taxes to the charity known as “The Government” by buying booze (I think 50% of alcohol's price is hidden tax) and lottery tickets. Now if only we could get the government to fund the right things – we could all go on a drinking bender and wake with the hangover from hell knowing that somewhere, underprivileged children were getting better education because of it. - FMC

An 18-year-old in Wisconsin had seven dump truck loads of snow delivered by the city to his parent's front yard so he could build a 34-foot long igloo. Dan Meyer said he used his 10 years of snow construction experience to form the snow into a massive snow fort that reaches above the first story of his parents' home."I was just amazed by how much one load was," Meyer said. "Then I piled it up and called them for more loads." Jeff Harding, assistant superintendent of public works for Neenah, said the city occasionally gets requests for truck- loads of snow, but this was the first instance he knew about where the snow went toward a construction project. "We backed up in the front yard and dumped away, just like we would at our dump site," he said. "It's really like, 'My God, what are you doing with all this snow?'"Dan's father was reported as saying that if all that snow floods the damned basement when it melts he is going to slap the taste out of Dan's mouth.Source: Bizarre News 03/22/2008With the Supreme Court trying to determine whether the 2nd Amendment to the Constitution really says that we can keep and bear arms, the following is quite interesting...1.

A man was getting a haircut prior to a trip to Rome. He mentioned the trip to the barber who responded, "Rome? Why would anyone want to go there? It's crowded and dirty and full of Italians. You're crazy to go to Rome. So, how are you getting there?""We're taking TWA," was the reply. "We got a great rate!""TWA?" exclaimed the barber. "That's a terrible airline. Their planes are old, their flight attendants are ugly, and they're always late. So, where are you staying in Rome?""We'll be at the downtown International Marriott.""That dump! That's the worst hotel in the city. The rooms are small, the service is surly and they're overpriced. So, whatcha doing when you get there?""We're going to go to see the Vatican and we hope to see the Pope.""That's rich," laughed the barber. "You and a million other people trying to see him. You'll be at the back of St Peter's Square and from that distance he'll look the size of an ant. Boy, good luck on this lousy trip of yours. You're going to need it."A month later, the man again came in for his regular haircut. The barber asked him about his trip to Rome."It was wonderful," explained the man. "Not only were we on time in one of TWA's brand new planes, but it was overbooked and they bumped us up to first class. The food and wine were wonderful, and I had a beautiful 28 year old stewardess who waited on me hand and foot. And the hotel was great! They'd just finished a $25 million remodeling job and now it's the finest hotel in the city. They, too, were overbooked, so they apologized and gave us the presidential suite at no extra charge!""Well," muttered the barber, "I know you didn't get to see the Pope."“Actually, we were quite lucky, for as we toured the Vatican, a Swiss Guard tapped me on the shoulder and explained that the pope likes to personally meet some of the visitors, and if I'd be so kind as to step into his private room and wait, the pope would personally greet me. Sure enough, five minutes later the pope walked through the door and shook my hand! I knelt down as he spoke a few words to me.""Really?" asked the Barber. "What'd he say?"He said, "Where'd you get the shitty haircut?"Source: Jokes2U 03/13/2008I saw a road sign that said, "Need help? Call Jesus. 1-800-555-3787."So I did.

Where I don't see one"A: "HEY WHO DRANK HALF THE WATER!"FMC solution to the Pot Problem:I recently came up with the prefect solution to the marijuana problem. For those of you with no clue what the problem with pot is we're in the same boat. But apparently some people think it's addictive. Well, so is smoking, porn, alcohol, porn, smoking, gambling, TV, smoking, the internet, eating, alcohol and porn, but only 2 of those thing kills people directly AND indirectly. And I got news for you - they all can ruin lives but chances are if when you step up and spin that addiction wheel and it lands on pot it could have just as easily been alcohol, or heroin. Some people say it's a gateway drug and if you are one of those people please grab your mouse wrap it tightly around your neck and pull both ends until you reach a happy place. Alcohol is a gateway drug I'm betting way before pot, do you know anyone that tried pot with out going through a drinking phase?...I’M WAITING….of course you didn't! Anyways, my plan is fines. This solves a lot of problems.1) I didn't make it legal so it's against the law to posses, sell, and smoke it. So that makes the anti-drug people happy.2) More money for the government. That makes the government happy.3) It's moving along the path to be legal, which makes intelligent people happy, AND4) Less people in jail. (Which makes everyone happy).We could have fines for smoking, selling and possessing, and if your carrying more than a pound of the stuff on you everything gets seized and police are free to test it and resell it, and thus making more money for the local law enforcement and probably increase the number of police officers. Can we please get this done and move onto more important things?

Just because things are bad doesn't make them any less miraculous. Like a woman in the middle of an earthquake gives birth while trapped under a fallen building with no help or medical attention is a miracle. But a rouge barcalounger that was sent into the upper atmosphere by a tornado two months ago, and has since managed to circumnavigate the globe twice, following the long lost migration route of the extinct saber tooth duck, that crushes a man who purchased the same one and just though “There’s no way I’m going to be able to find one cheaper” that is not a miracle?-FMCI’ve always wanted to place an ad in the Female seeking Male section of newspaper and see if anyone responds.

College for DummiesMany of you young persons out there are seriously thinking about going to college. (That is, of course, a lie. The only things you young persons think seriously about are loud music and sex. Trust me: these are closely related to college.) College is basically a bunch of rooms where you sit for roughly two thousand hours and try to memorize things. The two thousand hours are spread out over four years; you spend the rest of the time sleeping and trying to get dates. Basically, you learn two kinds of things in college:1. Things you will need to know in later life (two hours). These include how to make collect telephone calls and get beer and crepe-paper stains out of your pajamas.2. Things you will not need to know in later life (1,998 hours). These are the things you learn in classes whose names end in -ology, -osophy, -istry, -ics, and So on. The idea is, you memorize these things, then write them down in little exam books, then Forget them. If you fail to forget them, you become a professor and have to stay in college for the rest of your life.It's very difficult to forget everything. For example, when I was in college, I had to memorize -- don't ask me why -- the names of three metaphysical poets other than John Donne. I have managed to forget one of them, but I still remember that the other two were named Vaughan and Crashaw. Sometimes, when I'm trying to remember something important like whether my wife told me to get tuna packed in oil or tuna packed in water, Vaughan and Crashaw just pop up in my mind, right there in the supermarket.It's a terrible waste of brain cellsAfter you've been in college for a year or so, you're supposed to choose a major, which is the subject you intend to memorize and forget the most things about. Here is a very important piece of advice: Be sure to choose a major that does not involve Known Facts and Right Answers.This means you must *not* major in mathematics, physics, biology, or chemistry, because these subjects involve actual facts. If, for example, you major in mathematics, you're going to wander into class one day and the professor will say: "Define the cosine integer of the quadrant of a rhomboid binary axis, and extrapolate your result to five significant vertices." If you don't come up with *exactly* the answer the professor has in mind, you fail. The same is true of chemistry: if you write in your exam book that carbon and hydrogen combine to form oak, your professor will flunk you. He wants you to come up with the same answer he and all the other chemists have agreed on. Scientists are extremely snotty about this.So you should major in subjects like English, Philosophy, Psychology, and Sociology -- subjects in which nobody really understands what anybody else is talking about, and which involve virtually no actual facts. I attended classes in all these subjects, so I'll give you a quick overview of each:1. ENGLISH: This involves writing papers about long books you have read little snippets of just before class. Here is a tip on how to get good grades on your English papers: Never say anything about a book that anybody with any common sense would say. For example, suppose you are studying Moby-Dick. Anybody with any common sense would say that Moby-Dick is a big white whale, since the characters in the book refer to it as a big white whale roughly eleven thousand times. So in *your* paper, *you* say Moby-Dick is actually the Republic of Ireland. Your professor, who is sick to death of reading papers and never liked Moby-Dick anyway, will think you are enormously creative. If you can regularly come up with lunatic interpretations of simple stories, you should major in English.2. PHILOSOPHY: Basically, this involves sitting in a room and deciding there is no such thing as reality and then going to lunch. You should major in philosophy if you plan to take a lot of drugs.3. PSYCHOLOGY: This involves talking about rats and dreams. Psychologists are *obsessed* with rats and dreams. I once spent an entire semester training a rat to punch little buttons in a certain sequence, then training my roommate to do the same thing. The rat learned much faster. My roommate is now a doctor. If you like rats or dreams, and above all if you dream about rats, you should major in psychology.4. SOCIOLOGY: For sheer lack of intelligibility, sociology is far and away the number one subject. I sat through hundreds of hours of sociology courses, and read gobs of sociology writing, and I never once heard or read a coherent statement. This is because sociologists want to be considered scientists, so they spend most of their time translating simple, obvious observations into scientific-sounding code. If you plan to major in sociology, you'll have to learn to do the same thing. For example, suppose you have observed that children cry when they fall down. You should write: "Methodological observation of the sociometrical behavior tendencies of prematurated isolates indicates that a casual relationship exists between groundward tropism and lachrimatory, or 'crying,' behavior forms."

I married the wrong man."A lady inserted an ad in the classifieds: "Husband Wanted"Next day she received a hundred letters. They all said the same thing: "You can have mine."When a woman steals your husband, there is no better revenge than to let her keep him.A woman is incomplete until she is married. Then she is finished.A little boy asked his father, "Daddy, how much does it cost to get married?"Father replied, "I don't know, son, I'm still paying."A young son asked, "Is it true, Dad, that in some parts of Africa a man doesn't know his wife until he marries her?"Dad replied, "That happens in every country, son."Then there was a woman who said, "I never knew what real happiness was until I got married, and by then, it was too late."Marriage is the triumph of imagination over intelligence.If you want your spouse to listen and pay strict attention to every word you say -- talk in your sleep.Just think, if it wasn't for marriage, men would go through life thinking they had no faults at all.First guy says, "My wife's an angel!"Second guy remarks, "You're lucky. Mine's still alive."A Woman's PrayerDear Lord, I pray for Wisdom, to understand a man, to love and to forgive him, and for Patience, for his moods.
