Dana, you should "blow" a couple eggs, and leave them in the basket.
 Blowing eggs, is putting a small hole in each end and blowing the egg out of the shell. This leaves an empty shell for decorating at Easter.

I do prefer starting with cold water, bringing to a boil with my magic egg timer in with the eggs, but I didn't want to stand and stare at the thing until it was the right amount of blue. A friend of mine's daughter wants to keep chickens, but I don't think the township will let her. They already have bees, a bunch of rabbits, a guinea pig, and a macaw.

 ETA - have just looked up Araucana and found a place that supplies them. I may subtly court Mrs G all through the Spring term so that a present becomes a natural consequence of friendship... Quote:
They would be wrong for this neighbourhood though - too noisy for our packed-together houses and gardens.

If you didn't keep any roosters, you'd find that a few hens really don't make any noise other than soft clucking...

Griff we really live on top of eachother here. And Mum is hyper-sensitive to noise-making. She even considers windchimes anti-social.
When I win the lottery she can have them. She's getting a bungalow in a respectable part of town (all one level will be increasingly necessary with Dad's knees). And a gardener, so they have a bit of space witout the worry.

That's right, and you don't need a roo at all. Hens will lay eggs whether or not there's a guy around.
Oh, come on! You know you wanna!

Let's put it this way - I got black looks all day when I had a cold.
Reason? I kept Mum up all night. That would be the coughing and excessive nose blowing then. She had to go downstairs and wrap herself in a duvet, and she could STILL hear me. On the flip side, imagine her pain at living with two people with poor hearing, and having a Dad who is partially deaf. No wonder she lives life of the verge of a scream...
