We had chickens for years too.

While I didn't try it when we had them, I've been experimenting with drying raw eggs in my dehydrator.

Our Aldi has had locally produced eggs for anywhere from $0.34-$0.46 a dozen and it's difficult not to do something with them.

That's really cheap protein.

Wow, that is cheap. I would visit that chicken farm if its close by. You need to see why they are so cheap. Hopefully they are just doing the spring clean out. Thats when they send the older chickens to be slaughtered and the newer hens are brought in.

I'm sure the eggs are coming from more than one farm. There are a lot of poultry operations in our area. Both Chickens and Turkeys.

Well I'm happy to "meet" you and look forward to sharing more! Its a great place to learn from each other.

Same here, post upvoted and resteemed.
