Wow, you must keep chickens. I do (only 6) but they lay between 3 and 5
eggs a day. Wife used to sell eggs but I eat most of them now and throw
away the yolks. Do you know anything useful to use yolks for? I don't
like the waste. The cat and dog eat a few. How about making them into
something that I could drop off at the soup kitchen in our town? What
would be good?

The yolk is the best part.
Often my eggs are raw, mixed into a protein shake.

No, I just buy a lot of eggs and get them when they are on
sale...often at 69 cents/doz. I feed my dog 2 yolks a day and pitch
the rest. It's about the only food I waste, but I don't have any use
for all those yolks. Occasionally, I buy egg whites when they are on
sale but they are still more expensive than buying the eggs on sale
and separating the eggs, so I usually buy eggs. The egg whites are
ultrapasteurized too. This keeps them from expanding quite as much,
although they are still OK. You can't freeze them though, I understand
and then make meringues, though.
I used to get free fresh eggs without owning any chickens. When I
lived in S. Indiana, I had a farm. The neighbor had chickens though
and one would come into my barn to lay. She was a good layer too. I
got a fresh egg every day. Since I was only at the farm in the morning
and the neighbor was at work, I never bothered to tell him about it.
Suddenly the chicken stopped coming. A few weeks later, I did talk
with him and told him about the chicken. We both got a good laugh
about it cause he ate the chicken cause it wasn't laying. dkw

I think I'm going to start a 'Justice for Chickens' newsgroup. We'll fix
people like you.
I lived in Indiana too - north though in Ft Wayne. Now I'm in Idaho.

But wait, I have a much better chicken story. A farmer had a dog that
killed chickens. To keep a dog from killing chickens, there are 2
methods in vogue in Indiana: 1) Tie the chicken around the dogs neck
for a few WEEKS until it rots and falls off. By that time, the dog has
had enough chicken....or 2) Take the dead chicken and beat the hell
out of the dog with it. The farmer choose the 2nd option and proceeded
to beat the crap out of his dog, holding the chicken by it's legs and
flailing away. Then he threw the dead chicken on top of a huge manure
pile and went to bed. Early the next morning, he was awakened by a
sickening, weak "cockadoodle....do" and went out to the manure pile to
investigate... where he found his "dead" chicken still kind of alive
but looking much the worse for wear. I don't know if this is a true
story, but it just goes to show you the lack of respect out there for
chickens. dkw
