      Tell me you’ve never had to get eggs out of a nest, without telling me. Shit everywhere. They’re birds. So much shit.

        When I was a kid I went to fetch the eggs often, and it was quite rare they weren’t, to the eye at least, all good.

    - NFTs of specific eggs
    - egg crypto currency
    - mandatory AI driven (needs an account) app to use the egg
    - lower the production to control the price
    - lobby the gov to mandate that everyone needs to consume an egg a day & be able to prove it (or jail time)
    - use personal data to determine the optimal price per eg for each customer
    - egg loot boxes

        Poor old USA never got Kinder surprise, the FDA stopped them from ever being sold there since a plastic shell in chocolate are “non-nutritive items implanted in food” that makes them “not suitable for sale”

          I wonder why they don’t ban the king cakes in Louisiana. They all have a plastic baby in them and those things really can fuck up your teeth. They are also horrible but that’s a side issue.

              King cake is legitimately the worst cake I’ve ever eaten. They’re dry and flavorless and covered with multicolored sugar that always has an odd taste to it. Maybe a fresh one is OK but generally they’re made in the months leading up to Mardi Gras and they always sit around for a while. And then you lose a fucking tooth – and for bonus points, if you get the baby you have to buy the fucking cake next year.

    fun fact: chickens usually give 1 egg a month, but due to severe selective breeding, they give 1-2 a DAY. Ugh.

      That sounds like BS. Chickens evolved to take advantage of bamboo fruiting season which happened once in 7 years, so as soon as that time came, chicken population would increase rapidly. So people figured out if we feed the chickens a lot, they lay a lot of eggs. That was the whole reason to breed them.

      If you could engineer any bird to lay 1-2 eggs a day from once a month, why only do this to chickens? Why not other birds? Why only chicken?

      Edit: the heck, my app bugged out big time. Made 4-5 comments, sorry for that 😅

      I find it kinda hard to understand how they are able to process nutrients into an egg so fast. and am inclined to believe that the nutrient composition would be very different, with the quick-layers being much less desirable.

      Nah, they bred them to lay more eggs. They are more than desirable. They WANTED this. More eggs = more money. Who cares about nutrition. LINE MUST GO UP

        Won’t fertilised be more expensive since that would mean one could potentially make second generation produce?

          Not really. I was thinking do you want your eggs to be guaranteed not to have blood spots or accidentally give you baluut? Pay extra.

          Also, some weird people get very strange about eating fertilized eggs, like they’re full of rooster jizz. Which is stupid. It’s a chicken, eat it now or eat it later, you’re still eating a chicken.

            like their full of rooster jizz

            Hehe, all animals embryos are made of animal jizz.
            Still better than stuff made out of the intestines which might have some remnant faecal matter if not cleaned properly.


            I thought it would be something about eating a future-chicken vs eating an egg that would otherwise just rot away or be eaten by the chicken that laid it.

    My local Shop-Rite recently recently had a sale of a dozen “large” eggs for 99 cents. I bought a dozen and they were like the size of fucking quail eggs. Can’t complain for $1, I guess. These days, I have to buy Jumbo eggs in order to get something that is like the size of a normal egg.
