Anecdotal evidence of course by the eggs I get from my friend who raises chickens that just wander around her barn/yard are always better than store bought.

I buy the “Happy Egg” brand because all of the other eggs must be sad eggs. I don’t want to eat sad eggs. This is legit true. Is that weird? I mean, I know it’s stupid.

I have attended all-you-can-drink beer festivals for $30.  

I think pasture raised and free range chickens also have access to bugs/insects, which adds protein to their diet (a good thing).

I have eight different kinds of salt, which I use as the mood strikes.  I only measure it for baking.  I have to pay attention in that case because otherwise there is disaster.

On the menu next week - pulled stork mac ‘n’ cheese.

I’m disappointed this wasn’t made with the meat from 10 different species of animal.

That happened to me last week :(

This last year has been one of the worst for bear attacks, mainly because of clueless idiots and outright morons who treat wild fucking bears like pets. If you are new to the outdoors, like many Americans in the age of Covid, then stop expecting wild animals to behave like puppies and kittens.

They really do. Occasionally the outer layer will get kinda gross (after weeks), but I’ll just peel that off and it’s good to go again.

It depends. If I’m somewhere in Canada, I’ll look up places to eat. If I’m abroad, I’m willing to wander into a place and hope for the best. I’m usually interested in what, rather than where.

I grew up on a farm - I’m reading this article and thinking, ‘just eat them’.

I mean, it’s no fun cleaning and disemboweling a hen, but it’s part of what you sign up for when you raise chickens.

That’s a REALLY common mistake. People here frequently just get too many chickens without thinking about how much space, feed, and so forth each needs. Or how many eggs they’ll produce.

That’s when you cook them and eat them.
