Fried, scrammbled, poached or boiled ?

My camera is still not right so I have resorted to another show picture I am afraid !! I was full up with B&B last so this morning I was saying the above six times & I thought it was a suitable photo for the day !
Harry thought this display of eggs very interesting as he is quite into chickens & eggs ! This table was in the middle & all around were cages with all different varieties of hens & bantams ...some amazing colours & shapes.
Strangely the eggs with the most yellow yolk didn't necessarily win nor the egg with the brownest shell, I think it was all down to the pigmentation & smoothnest of the shell !
that is a whole lotta egg :).. good one.

Eggs-tremely interesting! Hope you get your camera working - mine got wet recently and after drying it out, I had to re-set the LCD monitor settings ... somehow in the wet they'd got 'scrambled'!!

Maybe they think the yellow yolks might be artificial additives? I didn't realise I was supposed to get smooth shells! I might post an extra egg shot as my young visitor was fascinated by the hens (and only managed to drop one egg!!). Hope you're chillaxing after all that cooking!

@jquinn @mrcolabottles @judithg There is something about chickens & eggs that people like there were certainly lots of people in that tent..you could hardly move !

Never heard of this comp before. What happens to all those yolks afterwards.Is this your busiest season at your B&B?

that just looks like so much fun! love your perspective and composition of this.

Sounds like an interesting competition

oh my! wow! I've never seen anything like this...very interesting :)

What a fascinating competition Pat - I've been to many country shows and I've NEVER seen such a thing. What are the categories?
September 11th, 2011  
Wonderful shot! I have always thought that brown eggs taste better. Although if blindfolded I doubt I could really tell the difference. :)
Sounds like you've been a busy lady with the B&B business!

A fascinating photo...who would of thought so much would go into choosing a prize egg.
