They sell locally raised, free range, hormone- and antibiotic-free eggs for about $1 more than the factory eggs.<br /><br />They taste SO much better. In my estimation, worth the dollar. ;-)knightonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05108963004609863794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14580558.post-75603084316557560462009-07-10T11:30:48.473-05:002009-07-10T11:30:48.473-05:00He was really more focused on quality product from...He was really more focused on quality product from a subjective standpoint, as contrasted with a "quality" product that merely meets manufacturing requirements.<br /><br />That kind of discussion of quality applies to almost all areas of life, not just eggs and farming. Consider the quality of a hand-sewn, custom-fitted garment versus some mass produced piece of nylon from China. Or a PC versus a Mac. ;-)<br /><br />I just digressed into the food discussion because it's important and reflects a societal attitude about quality. Just because that McDonald's burger is consistent and tastes the same at every location, doesn't mean it has any kind of quality whatsoever.knightonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05108963004609863794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14580558.post-61250692350927900412009-07-10T11:22:12.583-05:002009-07-10T11:22:12.583-05:00So, I read the egg article.

In all a...So, I read the egg article. Interesting.<br />In all actuality, though, the homemade egg is less expensive. He didn't have to drive to and from the diner, just to and from the local farmers market.<br />Heck, if he raised his own chickens, he'd have even more control over the quality of his eggs and meat!<br />Think of that.<br /><br />However, he talked about happy chickens. I really am not that concerned wether a chicken is happy or not. Really, a chicken will be happiest when it is doing what God designed it to do. Eating bugs.<br /><br />So, you can bet the farm that when we get our chickens, they'll be free range bug eaters! And make really tasty eggs!Leahhttp://momarewetheryet.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
