🥚 Happy National Egg Day! 🥚
Black-Copper Maran Eggs
These are the darkest eggs that chickens can lay. They look just like they’re made of milk chocolate.
Some can get a bit darker than these examples, and some can be delightfully speckled, as can be seen above.
NOTE: If you are sold a black egg, it is not from a chicken. Rather, you may be getting an egg from a bird species that are known to lay black eggs, like a Cayuga duck. Or you may even have been sold an artificially-colored egg.
FARM FRESH 🥚 Super excited for our new layer today and thankful for that beautiful egg she blessed us with!
I took a picture of the grocery I got on a walk and it came out looking like a still life paiting.
Egg hunt success - today’s catch
Yes, I'm whining. Posting this for posterity.
Holy moly! Egg prices! At Saubel's (local grocery store in Whiteford, MD), 1 dozen large brown eggs are $5.19. That's 43 cents an egg. 😮
18-count white eggs are $7.19. That's 42 cents per egg. 😵💫
At the Amish store at 9 Aubel Rd, Dleta, PS, 1 dozen large brown eggs are $3.00.
Just ... wow.
Got some local produce on the way home 🍓🍅🥚
Even though it’s freezing cold, they’re all still laying! The top is eggs we got today, the bottom includes one of Penny’s from a few days ago.
