Chickens
-
I've just come back to Bristol for the weekend to visit my parents for the first time this year to find that they have gone away for the weekend. Typical. Just as well my Dad isn't home to see the cricket score. Anyway, since my last visit home (Christmas), my parents have got some chickens and I have to say that the eggs that they produce are amazing. The yolk is an unbelievable orange compared to the regular pale shop bought eggs, and they taste a lot better as well. Although the eggs are a bit smaller the taste makes up for this fact. They are also cheaper to keep than to buy eggs each week. Bargain. They're more interesting than the rabbits which just sit around and bite you all day. I'm quite tempted to get some chickens when I go back home, but I've got a small courtyard with no open grass for them. That and my [hot] landlord wouldn't allow them. Shame. :(
If at first you don't succeed, you're not Chuck Norris.

If you're in an area that built up your neighbors would also probably lynch you over the stink...

Meh, they don't like me playing Machine Head (loudly), they don't like me throwing up in my front garden (only happened once :~). That and they hate one of my other house mates to have actually rang up the police and got him arrested for playing his music loudly (he's a dj), his own fault really. I don't really see what difference having stinky chickens would make.

Like I said before; once the chicken shit got ripe they wouldn't bother calling the cops. They'd kick in your door with rope in hand and blood in their eye.

I'm in that small minority of people that believe in driving an hour out of my way every week to buy food from a farm. Well... actually my wife is and I have been suckered into doing it. I will also speak for the difference in egg quality. I've been told it has something to do with the chicken's diet being omnivorous as it east bugs/grain/grass instead of the factory farmed chickens which are fed only grain by law. As far as the eggs being smaller?!? I've actually seen them much bigger and regularly containing multiple yolks.

Never mind the eggs - what do the chickens taste like?

I'm not allowed to eat them :( Possibly having one at Christmas, but they're only small little things.
