Actually, it was posted by a friend that is farmer.  Someone posted it to demonstrate how out of touch some people can be.

The discussion was centered around Ag literacy and how some parts of the country have no idea where their food comes from.  Kind of like the chocolate milk, brown cow survey.

Not the baby, but they save the placenta and consume it to absorb the fetus aura.

Another reason that liberals identify with chickens; both liberals and chickens can both strut around without any brains.

This one lived 18 months without his head attached.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_the_Headless_Chicken


"Mike the Headless Chicken (April 20, 1945 – March 17, 1947), also known as Miracle Mike,[1] was a Wyandotte chicken that lived for 18 months after his head had been cut off. Although the story was thought by many to be a hoax, the bird's owner took him to the University of Utah in Salt Lake City, Utah to establish the facts.[1][2]"

In any event, feeding whole eggs back to chickens is a terrible idea; they quickly learn to eat their own eggs.

However, feeding them shells in their diet builds calcium. Thin eggshells are a common symptom of this.

A hen can lay only one egg in a day and will have some days when it does not lay an egg at all. The reasons for this laying schedule relate to the hen reproductive system. A hen's body begins forming an egg shortly after the previous egg is laid, and it takes 26 hours for an egg to form fully.


This is pretty much what I have heard from my friends that raise chickens in their backyards.

Can't be true.
When I clean old layers, there are many eggs in the tract. Of course, they range from ready to lay to a bit of goo as you go from the ass to the head.up.
If it took 26 hours for an egg to fully form, the bird would be dead from all the fully formed eggs as they only lay one a day.

And the biodiesel that you typically see at the pumps is around 80 to 90 percent petroleum based.  They just mix 10 to 20 percent of the vegetable based stuff with it, to get liberals to pay inflated prices for the privilege of being smug.

My first job as a kid was raising meat chickens from hatchlings.  

I'm not going to claim to be an expert but I am experienced with both meat chickens and laying hens.  

Let me be the first to say:   NO THEY DON'T.

Egg production is related to nutrition and sunlight.  

A chicken will never crack its own egg open, though it's highly capable of doing so.  

However:  If you DROP an egg, the chickens will swarm around it and consume the entire thing, shell and all.

The wife and I had to live through this with a next door neighbor.

We live in the country, they came from the city to live the country life. They wanted to get their own eggs so they could control what is in the eggs by controlling the feefing of the chickens.

So it was off the a local farm to purchase a few (3) egg layers.  The next morning all we heard was cock-a-doodle-do, cock-a-doodle-do !!! All day long !!!!

Yup the bought 3 roosters and no hens to keep em happy.  So for the next month and a half it was, cock-a-doodle-do, cock-a-doodle-do, cock-a-doodle-do, cock-a-doodle-do,  All day long. They finally went and got egg layers and gave the roosters away.

Couple decades, or so, ago, a guy and his wife bought a relatively small parcel in the area (3 or 4 acres, as I recall) and built a really nice house on it.  Several years go by, and they divorced, selling the house.  The people that bought the house were apparently city folk wanting to get away from the city.

The wife decides to make the rounds and introduce herself to her new neighbors.  After stopping at my parents' house, she got my mother to walk her over to my house and introduce us.  The woman starts looking around my modest house, mutters "I never knew the third world was this close", then insists that I write down her number and tells me to call her if I ever needed anything.

My mother was pissed.

A couple days later, her husband apologized to my father (I was at work) and explained that his wife says some stupid stuff when she's been drinking.

The woman apparently has a really odd view of how normal people live (no formal dining room, no doilies, no formal living room...).  That was the last time the woman spoke to me or my parents.

Who finally went over and explained the situation to them?

I had a friend in central Iowa have some Californian's buy the farm down the road.  The Cali wife was literally waiting for her new neighbors to come over with a pie to introduce themselves.  At the end of the day they were pretty open to being educated and all their neighbors were good humored about it.
