• ~ What You Must Know ~
• Usually the whites of very fresh eggs such as you may gather from your own flock will be very thick in comparison to what you may be used to seeing at the grocery store!
• However, watery whites can be caused by a number of things.
• Eggs that are old will have watery whites...this is usually why grocery store eggs are so thin and tasteless.
• High ammonia levels in the coop can cause watery whites, too, as can high temperatures.
• These are other reasons factory farmed eggs are usually not very good...the conditions chickens experience in places like that are just not conducive to quality eggs.
• However, in the summer, your chickens' may have watery whites even though they are not kept in those sorts of terrible conditions.
• For instance, the older a hen is, the more watery her white will be.
• If you have an older hen, really, the watery white could very well be a badge of honor!
• If she has access to pasture, the yolks of her eggs will still be beautiful and they will still taste delicious despite being a bit thinner.

• ' The only creatures that are evolved enough to convey pure love are dogs and infants '
• ' Am I a romantic? I've seen 'Wuthering Heights' ten times.I'm a romantic.'
• ' Life is pretty good and why wouldn't it be? I'm a pirate,after all '
• ' If there's any message to my work,it is ultimately that it's OK to be different,that it's good to be different,that we should question ourselves before we pass judgment on someone who looks different,behaves different,talks different,is a different color. '
