soybean tofu is just as eggy in a scramble

I buy whatever is the best price at the store but get fresh eggs gifted from friends who have chickens when they have extras. The fresh ones are definitely better but not by enough that I'm going to pay out the ass for what's commercially available when I can get 1-2 dozen for a couple bucks. I just find excuses to use the fresh ones in dishes where the eggs are front and center when I have them.

Idiot

How do you even find local farm fresh eggs

>>17408558
Check the local farm. Idiot.

>>17408505
i buy free range chicken eggs, or however it can be translated

>>17408558
Go to a farmers market or flea market

I live in urban England and buy my eggs from the supermarket. Enjoy your rural idyll OP.

I get free range eggs. In a few years all eggs produced in this country must be free range by law.

>>17408558
Befriend farmers

>>17408623
Thanks pal, Rural Canada is great

>>17408661
What country is that?
>>17408530
Lol egglet

>>17408587
So supermarket eggs but the chickens get a bit of sunlight each day?

I only buy Chicken Puncher brand eggs.

>>17409017

People who don't live, in cities but also, don't know a chicken farmer might prefer to buy eggs in bulk trays

>>17409017
Shut up, bitch, or I'll punch you in your chicken!

>>17409515
People who don't live in cities, but also don't know, a chicken farmer might prefer to buy eggs in bulk trays

>>17409463
No
>>17409502
I used to work on poultry farms, I would never live with these disgusting creatures

>>17409161
He means Chickenpuncher Farms. Those are soom good ass eggs.

>>17409503
Looks good
>>17409515
Sounds decent but not as good

>>17409540
People who don't live, in cities but also don't know; a chicken farmer might prefer to buy eggs in bulk trays

>>17409531
Rude
>>17409552
Ahhh... No wonder there weren't results when I googled it.

>>17409546
yeah jokes aside even one of these makes such a mess and they smell like death.

>>17409630
Lol that's a fact, plus when in groups they like to peck each other to death. It's a horrible sight

>>17408505
Only when I happen to drive by the farmer's market when they're open. They're seasonal. It's too unreliable. I don't know of anywhere local that get fresh eggs other than that and I'm not on Facebook or any of that gay shit to find out.

>>17409674
Eggs aren't seasonal bro, they're evergreen. They grow all year round.

>>17409674
Just ask around, a farmer connection is never far if you have friends / family. Weekly deliveries

>>17409674
Egglet

>>17409503
That looks so comfy. The name is pretty awesome.

are brown eggs better than white eggs or is it just placebo?

>>17411831
mutt's law

>>17411838
I'm being serious tho. I'm not racebaiting.

>>17408505
I just order the cage free bullshits online or have the wife grab some good eggs while she's out since I can't be bothered to do so myself.

>>17411831
Flavor is comparable. Diet will slightly effect the taste of eggs

>>17411831
No difference

>>17411882
She sounds like a keeper (4 u)

>>17408565
The bus doesn't go to any farms and I can't drive.

I raise the chickens myself and finger them daily so they can get optimal egg quality and production

>>17411831
its all based on breed

>>17411882
here are your cage free chickens bro

you want pasture raised eggs

I get quail eggs from friends and chicken eggs from work.

>>17412116
Have them delivered

>>17408505
I have 3 hens.

>>17412178
What do you do for work?
>>17413220
How many eggs do you get a day from them?

>>17408505
No I have like 50 chickens, I'm not some city poor.

>>17413270
0.71 per hen, roughly 15 eggs a week.

>>17413283
Nice! That's plenty
>>17413278
Pics or its not true

>>17408505
Of course I'm not a cuck

>>17413293
Good man

It's breakfast, my dudes

>>17413287
>That's plenty
Yeah, I was thinking of getting more, but 3 is a lot of eggs already. I guess I could give some away, or start eating 3-4 eggs a day.

>>17413492
Eating 3-4 a day is ideal, in my mind. You could always sell the excess eggs if you aquire more, that will help pay for the feed/heat lamps

>>17408505
i do
>t.midwestanon

>>17408505
Of course. If theyre not staying firm and bubbly while frying then whats the point.

no, i go to a 3 small grocers and buy what produce they have on sale then a bulk bag of onion, tray of eggs and plenty of flour, fuck going all the way to a farm or a market

>>17413540
Good man, that's what I like to hear.
>>17413542
That looks absolutely delicious, so true too.

>>17413568
The farmer comes to me, but you do you, pal...
The rest of your diet seems based though
