~ 9 ~ See What I See: Chicken Canabalism? Hell Yeah I Feed My Girls Hard Boiled Eggs!

lyndsaybowes (71) in seewhatisee • 7 years ago

The hardest part is not hitting a chicken as I toss the eggs off the deck to them, they are swarming, SWARMING! How's my aim today?
Not bad for an egg head eh? 😘

(Video 2:22)

I See Edgar

Catty Cat lost Round 3 to Ratty Rat. You can see the desperation and anger in her eyes as she chews kibbles just wishing it was the fresh meat she deserves. You'll get him soon Edgar, you'll get him soon...(There was a severe lack of confidence in my voice as I said that, just so you know.)

I See My Source of Happiness

Mmmmm...bread products...aromatherapy...*drools

Food Porn

Beautiful Icicles

There's always a silver lining to shit weather, this time it's created some fantastic art.

Seeing this beauty definitely improved this cold, windy day. A feast for the eyes.

If I was a kid I would have not stopped until they were all broken. Now I take photos of them and couldn't imagine smashing their glory.

Noooooooooo! Pudding Skin in my Cove!!!!!!

I went to take some shots of the Cove and started dry heaving right away when I got close...no videos this time I don't want to put you through that horror twice (of having to listen to my girlish whining about the pudding skin, not the actual pudding skin, I know none of you were bothered in the least by that ).

It was rippling, RIPPLING I tell you!

The little waves move under the pudding skin, the pudding skin is alive, it's ALIVE...Nooooooooooo!! *Runs away as fast as my belly full of buns can take me :)

Lyndsay, grow the fuck up. -The Punisher

We used to somewhat respect you. -The Chicken Bitches

I'm sorry, is it mean that your abject horror description of the ice pudding skin makes me giggle? It's ok, Lyndsay, you can be grossed out by it. Don't let The Punisher judge you too harshly for it.

lol I love boiled eggs and I was just telling my wife how much I've been craving them lately(I'm trying to juice 2 meals a day) Those chickens better be glad I wasn't there or there would be some feathers flying as I scissor-kicked my way through the crowd to claim my prize!

The chickens don't have a problem eating their would-be babies? I didn't know that. Yeah, it looks cold out there. When the cove is frozen, then you know you have issues. Have you considered Jamaica? Ha ha

$0.00

lyndsaybowes (71) · 7 years ago

I'm definitely considering moving onto a sailboat one day...Jamaica is pretty close to here...

themanwithnoname (64) · 7 years ago

A sailboat down by Jamaica sounds really nice. Feet hanging off in the water. Sun on my face. Ahhh, I can feel it now.

Nothing wrong with a little cannibalism! We were talking about making bread earlier and seeing those delicious f--king rolls is inspiring me to resurrect that plan. Great photos!

$0.00

lyndsaybowes (71) · 7 years ago

YASSSSSS!!! Resurrect the plan, dooooooooo it!!! What kind of bread?

herbertholmes (56) · 7 years ago

About to do so! And I don't really know yet, probably just basic white bread, but probably with some additions. Baking is a new hobby in our household so every time's a new experiment :)

Thats amazing post for everyone, always doing good @lyndsaybowes
Eggs are a very good source of inexpensive, high quality protein. More than half the protein of an egg is found in the egg white along with vitamin B2 and lower amounts of fat and cholesterol than the yolk. The whites are rich sources of selenium, vitamin D, B6, B12 and minerals such as zinc, iron and copper.

ok. I have several things to say. Dang it looks cold. Brrrr. Toss me some eggs I miss them and Great Oma has none left. I miss those buns.mmmmmmmm...and that poor Greenhouse. That is on the bucket list for the spring. Get that man over there who is sitting around doing nothing but domestic stuff. As soon as it get warm of course. I wonder if Edgar would appreciate Joey Cat. Or would he be a stuffed shirt and hide under the bed.

roundhere (55) · 7 years ago

Hard boiled, raw, fried they don't care. Our chickens would eat them green with ham. One of the funniest tragedies I have ever seen is chickens chasing a mouse. Tragedy for the mouse as it turned out.
Beautiful as icicles are, the 12 year old boy in me still likes to watch them shatter sometimes. And big ones as spears... don't get me started!

$0.00

lyndsaybowes (71) · 7 years ago

I'm gonna have to bring some of the chickens in here if the cat doesn't do the trick! :) :)

roundhere (55) · 7 years ago

I almost suggested that, but Catty Cat looked upset enough already.

enforcer48 (68) · 7 years ago

Chickens can fend for themselves a lot more than we give them credit for.

I remember when my grandparents kept them, some of them even attacked snakes, etc.

lyndsaybowes (71) · 7 years ago

TRUTH!! My boys found a snake last summer and fed it to the chickens, they fought over it!

roundhere (55) · 7 years ago

In the dictionary, next to the definition of "omnivore" should be the picture of a chicken.

Do you know ? where I come from now it is being overwhelmed with fake eggs made with plastic material and surely that is very disturbing for the community.

lyndsaybowes (71) · 7 years ago

Omg that is disgusting, wow!!

sanu (51) · 7 years ago

The perpetrators are very disgusting, they are very evil and cruel no matter the health of others. which they know are merely profits and make as many fake eggs as possible
