    For the first time I bought brown eggs and I've been reading up on the differences between the colors and the word "blood" was used and now I hope I don't regret it because I eat these things hard boiled and it'll be too late!

    There is only one difference between brown eggs and eggs of any other color and that is the breed of chicken they come from. They are not more nutritious or weird or anything like that. On the inside they are the same. As a matter of curiosity, you can usually tell what color eggs a chicken will lay by the color of her ears.

    I did come across that in my interwebz journey re brown eggs. But then "heme" something came up. And then I envisioned little droplets of blood. And then....ewwwwwwww.

    The ear thing is pretty cool and, if I were the farmer type, I'd totally find purple eared chickens :)

    With all chickens there is sometimes the chance that there could be some kind of blood or tissue inside the egg. It’s not that common, especially in commercial eggs, but it does happen. it has nothing to do with the color of the egg though.

    I guess the darker color may make it difficult to candle the egg (when they shine a bright light into the egg to see inside) but I’m not even sure if they do that with commercial eggs anyway

    Also, I used to have chickens that laid blue and green eggs but I don’t remember what color their ears were. I’m pretty sure they weren’t blue and green.

    eta: I never meant to learn this much about chickens

    The second I learned about cloacas I slammed the book shut and hurled it into orbit. Honestly can’t really eat chicken anymore although I’m sure that’s unrelated

    everything about everything grosses me out tbh

    Yeah, it was a 20 mile hike which was about 6 miles and about 2000 more feet of elevation than I was used to. I finished but it wasn’t pretty and now I have bruised toenails, a blister on the bottom of one foot, and a couple of weird chafing spots.

    eta: you didn’t ask but the whole thing didn’t give me the sense of accomplishment & euphoria I’d hoped for. I felt old & out of shape

    I learned recently that when you do something hard but it doesn’t make the reward center of your brain go brrr then that means your brain learned from that experience that not everything is about the reward and thanks to neuroplasticity you have begun to wire a new connection whereby you get better at doing things even when you don’t feel like it ie discipline

    So let’s call it a victory

    But it’s still badass that you did it! So congrats and I don’t think you’d lose your toenails from this. I’ll get the same thing on my pinky toe at times.

    I will consider this. It was a long hike and there were a lot of people and it’s a lot to process. It’s amazing how much can happen to think about in just a few hours
