We get about a half dozen eggs from a neighbor who has a few Pekins. These eggs seem to have a higher ratio of eggwhite to yolk. I like them hard boiled.
Al Pine said:If you put a bunch of Duck Eggs in a box and let them hatch, you'll have a box of quackers.
And I also noticed that our resident water moccasin had a big lump inside him.
In Florida, cottonmouths are killed when they're found. You have one that is an accepted "resident"? Oh Yuck! My trigger finger is itching...
In Nevada, where I was born and lived for some time, coyotes were worth $25 for a pair of front feet. Some locals figured out how to break the back feet to look like front feet and were collecting double bounty. Now you have to turn in four feet. They figure if you have four coyote feet, there's at least one dead coyote out there.At that time coyotes were protected in Texas. So we could only pepper them with salt rock or a small dose of BB's. Salt rock works great on them. As the rocks start to melt from the body heat, it burns. But they remember where they got it and don't come back. BB's only hurt for a short time.
