Why no H5N1 vaccine for poultry?

I have more eggs than I can even eat. Contacted a shelter to see if they would like routine donations. No one ever got back to me.

Here the shelters and food banks won’t take backyard eggs. So dumb.

You might check and see if any local soup kitchens are accepting eggs or if folks who prepare foods for them might need some eggs. My local UU church has a monthly commitment to a local kitchen to bring/serve food, and dishes that include an egg ingredient might be a way to get the eggs into circulation.

I'll take your extra eggs!!!!

Assuming the shelter serves food, it must have something to do with legal ramifications in not knowing for sure where the eggs come from....I don't know, just guessing.

I wonder if you could contact local churches as they seem to know who the less fortunate / needy families are in their sphere of influence. Just an idea.

Well since it seems the H5Ni virus is being passed through the shell and into the yolk. That could complicate things.

I don't want to see anyone potentially get seriously sick (or die). I have no qualms about playing "guinea pig" on myself.

I do my eggs scrambled, so cooking them that way would probably kill off any H5N1 in the egg.

Doesn't decaff still have caffine? Where did you get this idea?

I don't know... You tell me (shrug). I did some digging around, and found an article that says green tea helps chickens fight off H5N1.

It seems to be working, and the "girls and boys" drink from the buckets on a regular basis.

I'll stick with coffee.
