@hamburger,

we have 8 chickens, 3 Wyandottes and 5 auracanas. The"canas give different colored eggs based on different diets. Ours can give like a french ultramarine blue, torquoise, light green, olive green, tan, and pink. They are such cool chickens. Very people oriented. They see you in the yard and they come running . Then they just mill around you with contented clucking. Our barn cats even arent afraid of them.(Usually a chicken will kick the **** out of a cat)

Another thing that has changed since the bygone days is the storage of the eggs in the refrigerator. Most people used to store their eggs in the manufactured egg containers on the inside of the refrigerator door. Now we're advised to not store the eggs on the door because of the constant fluctuation of temperature changes each time the door is opened.

We Are?!?!

We're also advised not to remove them from the carton and store them in those egg holders, saying that the cardboard egg carton provides better insulation and keeps them fresher and less dehydrated for a longer period of time.

Didn't know that either but I'm glad to hear that my laziness has been a good thing.

@farmerman,

That was an awesome ham salad. Warmed up some Habitant pea soup to have with it. <sigh>

@JPB,

in the "olden days" we used to store eggs in a stonecrock filled with water to which some isinglass had been added . those eggs kept for some weeks without spoiling .
mind you , the crock was not kept in the kitchen but in an unheated storage room adjacent to the kitchen - and no central heating .

@hamburger,

I had a neighbor who kept an "egg basket" on the counter of her kitchen. I was intrigued but too chicken (HAH!) to try it.

@JPB,

This is exactly what my grandmother did. As i've pointed out, i wouldn't want to try it with commercial eggses . . . the one's my grandmother left sitting out had thicker shells, and had not been washed.

Were your friend's eggses from her own hens?

@Setanta,

No, but she got them from the egg man who brought them every few days.
