Guest guest Posted August 10, 2000 Report Share Posted August 10, 2000 Good on ya Joan for raising a few chickens on your own. We have 6 hens in our backyard and they keep the whole family supplied with organic eggs all year round. I even have a few left over which I sell to friends for a buck a dozen once a month or so (no this is not a pitch to list members . They are really easy to look after and when I wish to clean up a my garden, I simply enclose a portion of the garden in chicken wire, and the chickens eat all the grass and weeds, aerate the soil, and fertilize (naturally) the garden bed all in a days work Love, Ian Dr. Ian ShillingtonDoctor of Naturopathyian_shillington - joanr herbal remedies Wednesday, August 09, 2000 7:37 PM Re: [herbal remedies] eggs Penny Khaled wrote:> > Dear Herbalists,> I have just read that Hillandale Farms, Polk County in Florida, is> going to supply the public with Irradiated eggs.They are going to be> exposed to gamma radiation produced by cobalt 60.> So, Floridians - "Eat an egg and get a glow"......sarcastically> yours....Penny (who wonders how the future generations of Humans will> explain the mutations that are born to them)One more reason to have my own laying hens!!!!(which I do)..............Joan*************************joanrlower Fraser Valley, B.C.http://mygarden.cjb.netFederal Law requires that we warn you of the following: 1.
