I got my chores done early due to the cold...which was nice for a change...I’ve been making computer fliers all evening...NOzt fun. To sell baby bunnies, duck egg and chicken eggs. Next I need to apply for a license to sell food...I’m not quite sure how to due that yet...dept of...? In PA. Any hints? Oh, that’s because I plan to make salted duck eggs...or at least I’m going to TRY...apparently some people pay $22 for 6!! So..we shall see?

I've probably had salted duck eggs and didn't know it. I've made a few trips to China, and my agreement with my translator was, he was to order the food he liked, X2, but was not to tell me what it was, until after. I ate some pretty strange (by American standards) things. I remember moon cakes with a filling that sounds like salted duck eggs. I just googled them. NO WONDER they cost $22 for six! It's an intensive days work to prepare them even before you wait the 30-60 days for them to brine. GOOD LUCK WITH THAT PROJECT. I can hardly hold out for the week for pickled eggs!

You know "what you see on the internet....."
You may want to check into any "cottage laws" in PA. Some of the small farm issues are covered by those aa to what, when, where, etc.. that can be sold by farmers.
But, I suspect that there would be a few hoops for something like cooked eggs. Keep us posted. Sounds like a specialty food. Pickled quail eggs come to mind now.Mini Horses

It's late. I'm up. Found a young possum in a shed when checking things. Scooted it into a trap. Will haul that unwelcome butt off a few miles & release it tomorrow. Glad it wasn't that huge one that had been here a couple months ago.
While out, I notice a goat doe out of barn and alone under cover. Yep, she's possibly in early labor. That was couple hrs ago an a check 15 min ago had her same place and a few hollars as I went by. Means little, she's vocal a LOT. Could be tonight or --- doe code, ya know! But, I'll ck again in a while. Sure will spoil my sleep. Been bagging but, looked like another week. Will let ya know in AM. At least it's warming until low 40's for dawn, then into 70s tomorrow.
Guess it will be a solitare game night. LOL
