Mrs Frugal Posted March 26, 2005 Share Posted March 26, 2005 Jack! Lovely to see you back again !! Tell Grandma they are the tastiest eggs on the planet and she'll never get better than those anywhere!! It's not cruel to eat them because they're not fertilized and it's a terrible shame to waste them! Hope all is going well with Marigold and Buttercup .

Lesley Posted March 26, 2005 Share Posted March 26, 2005 Hello Jack Yes - I agree with Kate. Did she say why she thinks it is cruel? Does she ever eat eggs? Lesley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicola H Posted March 27, 2005 Share Posted March 27, 2005 My mum says she doesn't like eating my chooks eggs because she has seen all the bugs and worms they eat, and when I fed them maggots she said that was it no more eggs for her, never mind all the more for us. She now buys her eggs from the supermarket I wonder what those chickens eat......................... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Posted March 27, 2005 Share Posted March 27, 2005 Reminds me of the story of somebody who refused a tongue sandwich, because he wouldn't eat anything that had been in an animal's mouth. So he had an egg instead... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trish Posted March 27, 2005 Share Posted March 27, 2005 Jack, your girls eggs are probably the least offensive animal produce anyone could eat. If your grandma is bothered about what your girls eat then she wouldn't want to know what gets into commercially farmed animal products of all types, except organic. I'd rather have my eggs from a chicken eating slugs and maggots than from one feed a diet with lots of chemicals.

SarahJo Posted April 1, 2005 Share Posted April 1, 2005 There is a saying "you can't teach your Granny to suck eggs" ... clearly she won't eat them either .. more fool her, and give them to Grandpa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
