I want to see a picture of one day of egg collecting at your place!! Must be quite a sight, especially for someone like me who is only getting about 4 eggs a day.

Jerrit,
How do you market all those eggs? And what is it like to take care of the hens? I am really curious about what your day must be like! What do you do with all the manure?

Well the eggs are sold to local stores and the rest are shipped to NYC. Well It really only takes me about 30 mins to half an hour every day to check and collect the eggs. It would take less time if the pullets wouldn't surround me and play try to trip the owner with a milk crate full of eggs The manure right now is just going on the floor and under the roosts the floor is covered with so much wood shavings that there has been no manure build up. Being about to clean under the roosts helps a lot also and increases the time between clean outs. The manure will go to a field near by.

I don't know how you do this CEF, and you are still a moderator of a computer forum.
