Trepke http://www..com Beware the three-yolk egg Also worth noting: Very large eggs are not normal. There are variations, of course, but I don't recommend buying the jumbo variety. We used to have chickens when my family was in its farming mode. I noticed that the eggs were, in general, smaller than what I saw in the grocery store. I asked my neighbor about this. She was an Arkansas farm woman with a sixth-grade education who had never been out of the state--but she knew chickens. She replied, with a twinkle in her eye: " Well, these chickens ain't never been to the city, and most of them city chickens ain't never seen a rooster, which means they ain't fertilized, which ain't normal. Look at the yolks of the city chickens, they're yellow-- they're sposed to be orange. The hens in the city and on those high falutin' chicken farms are wasting their time sittin' on those eggs-- nothin's goin' to happen. " It was a little scientific for me, but I got the message. As long as the chickens laying the eggs haven't been pumped full of hormones or steroids, eggs themselves are excellent nutrition. <http://www.realhealthnews.com>www.realhealthnews.com.
