Did you take a look at the post I did on egg preservation in the 18th Century? Love the techniques they used and really useful in a grid down situation.

I had seen it come up but haven't taken a minute to read it! Thanks for the link! My chickens aren't laying yet though. :( freeloaders!
lol that's funny. Don't forget to save all your shells to feed back to them. You wont believe how well it helps them break down their food and also really increases how thick and strong the new eggs are. It will really save you a lot of breakage. We always saved the shells and washed them to feed back or use in out garden.
Right on! Once they do start laying I'll give them oyster shells as well! :)
Awesome. Well you don't need any advice from me for sure. Sounds like you are doing a great job. Love your photos btw. I think you did a great job getting good shots even if it only took 100 or so to do it. lol :) That's dedication!
Oh I'm sure I'm no expert!! Haha I know where to go if I do have any questions! Thank you!! :)
