So if I'm washing eggs that have been in the fridge should I use cold water?

You’ll still want to use warm water :)

How do you get wifi/camera in your coop?

@borealbloomhomestead Жыл бұрын

Great question! I really struggled getting a camera set up in the coop because it's a little ways from the house - about 100 feet. Most wireless cameras claim to reach 300 feet, but because our coop is tin clad, it really reduces the range. I tried a few different alternatives, and finally tried a WYZE Wireless Outdoor Camera and it is excellent - has both daylight and night view mode, motion sensing, the battery last a long time, and is hardy enough to stand very cold temperatures. You can get them on Amazon: amzn.to/3J1JXi4 (Affiliate Link) Hope that helps!

As the "She" in this video, I'd like to say thank you for watching. Personally, I like a video with a bit more information than "egg dirty. wash egg. store fridge". The way my brain works is that I want to know more about the problem (dirty eggs), how to prevent it (collecting regularly, keeping nest boxes clean), how to wash (water temp, process etc), how to store (where, when etc). and WHY! This knowledge gives me the power to make informed decisions that are tailored to my needs. Oops, did I talk too much again?

@@borealbloomhomestead If i have some fresh chicken eggs my sister gave to me around the 15th or so of March, they have been in the fridge since we returned from VA to NC after a funeral, They still have the bloom on them, That should be ok, right? Are you using a special scrubber or something to clean them, Is it a type of scrub mitt or just a regular dish rag? I will do the float test on these I guess, Hadnt been up to eating eggs lately, but want to clean and consume them , prepare them in a casserole or something at this point. Great video, Its nice to put some human in videos sometimes instead of trying for a time limit to increase clicks. I am hungry for some eggs now! Please hurry with your thoughts

@@NcKnobhead as long as those eggs went into the fridge within a week or two of laying you’re definitely good to go! I just use a cotton wash cloth to clean them up, it works great and is easy on the eggs! Hope that helps!
