OK, someone NEEDS to buy those eggs and check fertility! $8/ dozen is what I usually charge for EE eggs, for making chicks though, not breakfast!

Next time I go to whole foods (monthly) I will buy these eggs, crack the eggs and put up pics on forum. Unless someone more local beats me to it!

I didn't even notice that!! I was more hung up on the magical nutritional value of a pastel egg.

We had a neighbour in the 1970's who had blue egg layers and claimed the same thing, that they were low cholesterol...so that myth has been circulating for years! Amazing what crap people will come up with to sell something! And don't get me going on the one that says goat milk has no lactose!

Yep I heard this a while ago and its amazing how a good bull paddies story spreads besides the truth.Farrier1987 wrote:QR_BBPOST Had some friends in BC. Had chickens, some easter eggers. Someone had convinced the lady of the house that the blue eggs had no cholesterol. I think that is one we should get going strong, would make them worth a lot more. Even if its not true, so what?
But, the eggs from coturnix quail have been known since ancient times at reducing or limiting allergies and asthma leading to patents in europe. http://www.ovogenics.eu/en/page/history.html

Does that blow your mind or what? Anyone with first hand stories?
My allergies are terrible. I guess quails are next for me.

Same BR. Irony that I have over 100 animals, allergic to them all. I hadn't heard that about quail...I think they might be on the list for next year now lol

Ameraucanas lay medium size eggs, at least they got that right. :)Shnookie wrote:QR_BBPOST I notice they are only medium size, not large.
