- Welcome back to The Kneady Homesteader channel! Thanks for stopping by and hanging out with me as we wash and package up some chicken eggs!
All of my chicken supplies can be found here:

Custom stamps I bought off of Etsy.
Many have questions about washing them and storing them in the refrigerator. We wash all eggs in a special egg wash solution. Egg stamps are used with FDA approved food safe ink. These are the revommendations from the FDA, which I stay in complaince with, even though I only sell to family and friends. All of our customers have asked for their eggs to be cleaned prior to purchasing. All of my eggs are stored in a designated refrigerator used only for my eggs and delivered in a special transport cooler bag. ☺️ Here is a link to the FDA revommendations on handling and purchasing eggs in their shells. It is NOT recommend safe to purchase unwashed/unrefrigerated eggs here in the US.

Such pretty eggs and so elegantly packaged. You’re amazing girl! ❤
💋💋💋💋💋
I guess I'm extra emotional today because this video made me tear up. Seeing you do this just made my heart so happy. A relatively simple task but a million miles from where you were after the accident. You really do inspire me so much with your kindness, strength and fortitude.
I wish I lived close to you and not just for those eggs! 🥚 ❤ So appreciate all your videos. You bring so much joy to so many.
😊 thank you
Beautiful eggs! What a blessing. You did an amazing and beautiful job packaging them up. They are truly packed with lots of love ❤
You are so kind. They really are hand picked by me so everyone gets an array of all the beautiful colors! God is so good. 🥰
Your hens would be so proud of how pretty their eggs look in those cartons. ❤
God has given me a dear sister who has chickens. She brings eggs to me a lot and I am blessed. She doesn't wash them as we both prefer keeping them out r of the fridge. Thank you for sharing 🙏💙
all the extra touches make a dozen eggs so special, even these are bursting with love. I feel like when your friends open them, they can feel the love pour out 💛🧡❤️😍🌼🐔🥚🥚🥚🥚🥚🥚🥚🥚🥚🥚
Love that! Yes!!!!! 😁👏👏👏👏♥️
Eggees! Or cackle cherries as my Dad calls them. So so pretty!lots of love packed into each dozen. From feeding the girls to packing the eggs.❤
Love that! 🤣👏👏👏👏 Your Dad is awesome!!!!
@@TheKneadyHomesteader We had a bit of a health scare with Dad the other day. Thankfully scans showed a minor issue that was easy to resolve. One heck of a roller-coaster of emotions, and a reassurance in the power of prayer. So very grateful and humble. ♥️🙏
Hello from Mossel Bay, South Africa, sweet Heather.❤ This video is priceless! You're 100% meticulous in all you do, what an inspiration to me. I'm so thrilled that you're able to use your hands so well now! I wish I lived near you to buy your hygienically clean eggs for me and my man's small baking business.😊 I have a teeny inkling of your pain, and I feel frustrated for your sake. I await 2 hip and 2 knee replacements. I'm also going in for Carpal Tunnel surgery on my right hand, along with surgery to remove a growth on my lower groin, all under local anaesthetic next week! Last time my left hand was done, and there was much joy and teasing the surgeon in theater. I asked him if I could adopt him, a huge black man from the Congo! The nurses here are amazing and caring. Heather, it feels like you're part of our small family, and we love you so much. Thanks so much for your incredible videos. Shalom, and take care.
Wow! Waving all the way from the United States. Can you see me? 😆👋🏼♥️ That's incredible!!!!! I am in awe! I am adding you to my prayer list..... praying for miraculous healing and restoration for you! May the Lord.cover you, protect you and heal you, sweet sister! Please keep me posted on how you are doing. ♥️ Sending you all of my love and you ARE family to me..🥰
I love the care and creativity you put into packaging the eggs. It's like therapy.
It really is! It helps keep my hands doing small tasks like tying and stringing twine into a small hole. All things I.used to do in physical therapy.
Hi Heather
Your girls lay some pretty eggs & the way you wrap them adds a nice touch🤗
Thank you! 🤗
@@TheKneadyHomesteader
Your welcome 💕
Beautiful. I know your costumers appreciate the extra love you put into packaging. God bless Heather. Hope you are healing well. Continued prayers and have a blessed day.
Thank you so much, sweet mama!
I want to get chickens as soon as my husband can heal from his back injury. He lost his job of 20 yrs and then hurt his back. I have heard chickens are so much fun to raise. I can't wait!
I am so sorry to hear about your hubby. Praying for healing and complete restoration. Chickens have played a huge role in our recovery. They are great therapy animals for the soul!
You always add a special touch to everything.......so pretty...❤
Thank you so much 😊
Yes she does❤
God bless you Heather.❤️✝️🙏
Such a variety of beautifully colored eggs, Heather!💕 That is so very nice 😊
Thanks so much! 😊
I have been with you a long time before accident. User changed and then kept falling off. No name on this user but my name is Robin. So glad about your teeth! You are beautiful in and out. I loved the way your husband loves you and all the beautiful things you did for each. I’ve never sent anyone a monetary gift except you. Looking forward to seeing all your progress. 🥰 love you!
Beautiful color eggs, and you package them with such love God bless!❤

Good morning!
Congrats! You always have the prettiest eggs!
I love those dark brown speckled eggs. I saw on this one stand someone had a picture frame of the hen of the month with the hens picture in it and I thought that was the cutest thing. Thanks for sharing
Oh I love that idea!😆👏👏👏
💙Love and patience right there!! 💚
I wish I could buy some. They are beautiful.
I can’t wait to get you some coffee, dark olives, and spearmint to add to your rainbow 🌈
me too! hahaha xoxo
Oh my gosh Heather loved this 💕I have hens that lay colors to and yes such a joy however I never knew you could get all that wonderful stuff to wrap them up with and the little stamp! Love the custom cartons. Love how you take extra little steps like this. And I just checked thank you for leaving the link. If I ever get to get anything I will put on my cartons inspired by my friend Heather the Kneady Homesteader xo. This made me smile all the way through. hugs and love
You are so welcome! I am so.glad sharing this can help some of you..... in case you ever want to do something like this. I had no clue when we started. It was during my emergency surgery on my leg and I was bed bound. And homeschooling. Not much I could do from bed and the Lord laid this on my heart. I was able to teach my kiddos how to start and run a small home based business. 😆 And it's been a blessing!
@@TheKneadyHomesteader 💕💕💕
Your eggs are a work of art! Wish you lived in my neck of the woods.😊
So nice of you! I wish we lived closer too🥰
Wow what beautiful eggs.
I’d love a fresh scrambled egg right now! Looks so good!

An assortment of twenty four 3 month old Marans, Americana, Amberlink and Easter Eggers to go with my flock of Rhode Island Reds and White Leghorns, Looking forward to getting the full spectrum of colors later this summer.
Your eggs will be beautiful! Cream Legbars lay the most beautiful blue eggs and they are so sweet. Just in case you want to add them to your flock next year!

I want you to know that sharing your story of loss and the Barn45 ministry gave me the support to weather this sudden storm, our 31 year old son passed away in his sleep on March 9th. Our grief is raging but our Father God is holding us close. Thank you for being God's servant while we shed tears of pain for our earthly loss and joy for our heavenly reunion. I am forever thankful to you my sister in Christ Jesus!
Oh Lisa, I am so so very sorry for the loss of your baby boy. 💔🙏🏼😭 I am praying for God’s mercy and healing to pour down over you and your entire family. Hold on tight to Him. Barn45 has helped me so much in my healing. They are a lifeline in this world full of suffering. Good, Godly Women, prayer warriors like I have never seen before. Tethered and bound together with great love for the Father. I am so honored to be the one who was able to connect you to them. I am sending you the biggest hug and all of my love. Lord, cover this sweet mama’s broken heart, Father God and let her feel your presence!🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
@@TheKneadyHomesteader Thank you, I am in the depths of grief but will continue to seek our Father God's purpose in this tragic loss. You are so appreciated and loved my sister in the family of God.
I love your eggs, they are so colorful! ❤
Awwwww thank you so much!!!!🥰
These eggs are beautiful 😀😀. How are your new babies doing ????❤❤
Amazing! They just graduated to the garage. They still need their heat, but out garage is insulated and drywalled and they are growing all of their feathers in now. They are in their ugly stage. 🫣😆 AND I added 4 Buff Orpingtons because Tractor Supply needed them sold and they gave them to me for $1! I couldn't say no!😆 Those are straight run and I am praying for at least one rooster!!!!
😊😊😊 Thanks.
Thank you🥰
This is gorgeous! ❤
😁♥️💋
Wonderful wish I could buy a dozen they look so pretty u go
♥️♥️♥️♥️
We take our eggs to church and give them to help people out who are in need.
I have done that as well. It's such a wonderful treat to be gifted rainbow eggs when.times are hard. ♥️
Amen.It is such a blessing to give. The people receiving just love our eggs.😊
Such beautiful eggs! First here 😅❤

I think King Jesus has a smile on His face as He paints those eggs, don’t you?
Beautiful eggs!
Thank you very much!
I need this!!!!!!!
Perfection!
WOW! Why.....Thank you! ahahah xoxoxo

Such a praise a definite Praise to watch those hands and arms with mobility and above all Life. Thank You Jesus on behalf of her six children and all the loved ones.

Amen! Amen!!!!!🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Such a beautiful assortment of eggs and packaging.
I love the color of the eggs! What kind of chickens do you have? I’m hoping to raise chickens when I move to our new home. I bought a house with 1 acres
❤
Love it! Where did you buy the container you keep all your supplies in?
The clear plastic or the black and white basket? I think both from Amazon?
girl, where ya been??? 🧡💛
Life got so busy!!! 😆 I am treading water over here. Seeing my dentist a lot as we are making my implants now! 😁🙏 Praise the Heavenly Father!!!! Homeschooling, canning, scripture studies and making teeth!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Missed you guys!
Oh so pretty and the best to eat..question where did you get the egg cleaner..

HELLO I AM NEW TO YOUR CHANNEL #NOT A DAY WITHOUT JESUS 🙏
Who knew!?!
😁
If you dont mind me asking,how do you check to tell if your eggs are fertile or not,i use to help my neighbor check his eggs in a dark room by holding the eggs in front of a candle.
I have a special candler flashlight. I also have a light built into my incubator but that one isn't as powerful. If you have a good rooster to hen ratio, your odds are pretty good they are fertile. But even then they may not develope. It's all in the Lord's hands. 🥰
❤❤❤❤❤
Wow so beautiful ❤
Thanks 😊
How are you doing? Me, not too good. Suppose to go Monday and have 2 teeth pulled and I am scared to death, being the big baby that I am!!!!!
you got this!!!!! do not think about Monday, until Monday gets here. zero thoughts. zero energy. Take it as it comes. no fear! If I can get all my teeth pulled plus impacted wisdom, I know you can get two teeth! you are braver and tougher than I am! You got this, Mama!!!!!
@@TheKneadyHomesteader Thank you sweetie but I am a huge baby when it comes to needles!!!!!! Again, Thank you, I appreciate you!!
🥚 🥚
Wow you spend a lot of time on eggs and those extra things cost money. But so sweet.
Do you still home school yr kids. Haven't heard u talk about it.
Hi sweet lady, how are you feeling? Question.......what is the best bread maker to get?
Good question! I do not personally own one BUT I recently bought one for my son Jake who wanted one for his birthday and after a lot of research I bought him this one. And he LOVES it!!!!! amzn.to/3QxJ5Fl
Thank you so much!!
Hi Heather... wondering how many chickens you have. 😊
Great question! hahaha I try not to count. And I have 23 more hens being added...... they are 3 weeks old. HAHAHAHA chicken math!
@@TheKneadyHomesteader well I would be a customer but I'm in the White Mountains of Arizona. Love you and your channel.
I wish I could gift you some!!!!💋♥️🥰 and if I had to guess... total.....in the 60's 😆 I honestly no longer count 😆 they are all my babies!!!!!
What kind of chickens are they from please?!
I have a long list! but mainly Ameracauna, Cochin, Brahma, Cream Legbar, Red Marans, Barred Rocks, Orpingtons, australorpe.... and probably a few more I forgot. LOL
Warm or cold water?
Cold soak with the cleanser and cool to rinse ☺️
Beautiful eggs however if your buyers want o water glass them they cannot and they mst be refrigerated after washing as bloom is gone no natural protection anymore
Yep 🤗
If your client requests unwashed eggs, will you honor their request?
Absolutely! 😁 In fact I have some who request unwashed to incubate in which case they get their eggs fresh off the warm nest! I have lots of grand chicken babies out here 😆
👍🥰🙏♥️♥️♥️👋🙏😎
Please pray for my 83 year old dad he has fluid on his legs, ankles & feet.Im sorry its not about the eggs.
It's ok! Never apologize for asking for prayer.♥️ Lifting your sweet Mama up!🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
❤🐔🐓🐣🐤🐥🥚🥚🥚🥚 very nicely packaged Heather. Hope you get good money for them.
😆 $5/dozen!
@@TheKneadyHomesteader wow that is cheap. 🫠😊🥚
Ms Kneady? Did you get my card?
I'm going to my PO Box tomorrow 😁♥️💋💋💋💋
@@TheKneadyHomesteader You better take your feather duster with you cuz I don't think you've been there in a long while!!! LOL
Dont people want unwashed eggs? They last sooo long without refrigeration.
Sadly they don't, but I have more info in the description box about selling them according to USDA guidelines, which is to wash them. If someone asked me not to wash them, I would do that for them but my friends and family all want them washed. haha
Heather...please clarify. So many stories out there. Its my understanding that you remarried. Yet I haven't seen any video or mention...please clarify, when did you remarry. Normally I would say this is private but your accident, healing and grieving was public so figured this should also be public to your supporters
Sure! Yes I did. I shared a video on it two months or so ago. 🥰 ruclips.net/video/6XLmAigo3zE/видео.htmlsi=_U21Gb-KJVvjh76p
@@TheKneadyHomesteader omg, I missed it...I'll take a look, thanks and congratulations!!
OMG How many girls DO YOU HAVE???
I can't answer that!😆😆😆
How come ? My neighbor has 200 but he doesn’t hide how many he has there a reason why you can’t tell us.
No I’m just teasing. I think I have around 60 and I have 23 babies being added that are in the brooder. But chicken math is real 🤣 and I have my 3 turkeys.
Eggs have a natural coating called a “cuticle” or “bloom” that protects the contents from bacteria. When that cuticle is washed off, the semipermeable shell can allow bacteria to pass through and contaminate the contents. So, if you wash the protective coating off the eggs, immediately cook them or store in the fridge. We had people that got upset because we DID NOT wash our eggs. Now that they understand the process, they are glad we don't wash them, they last longer and they just need to wash them before they use them :0)
It's so interesting that you wash your eggs over in America. It's literally illegal to sell washed eggs here in the UK, because washed eggs go bad much faster, as it removes the natural waxy coating/barrier that prevents bacteria getting through the permeable shell. So, washed eggs are much less safe. (obviously, we wash them just before use, like vegetables). Beautiful eggs, though.
That's crazy! So do you sometimes find muddy or poopy eggs when you buy them from the store? Feathers stuck on them? I think if people bought them from the store fresh out of the nest most folks here would have a fit. 😆 People do not want dirty eggs! Even if it's just a little dirt. Which happens here in the rainy season. And the FDA, despite washing, if not pasteurized, require warning labels for safety. It's why I add stickers and an information card with a date on when those eggs were collected and cleaned. Not washing my eggs would make my life a lot easier, but almost everyone who buys from me has asked me to clean them first.even though aren't even dirty. Here is the FDA requirements www.fda.gov/food/buy-store-serve-safe-food/what-you-need-know-about-egg-safety
@@TheKneadyHomesteader yup, we get the occasional feather or spec of dirt,- but that just proves they came from a chicken. Obviously you can give them a rub with a towel before selling.
But in the uk eggs (even supermarket eggs) are not pasteurised, because they do not need to be - the natural barrier protects the egg, as it would protect it for many weeks in warm temperatures if chicks were being hatched. It’s much healthier and more environmentally friendly.
It’s a matter of social attitudes, many people in America (especially the cities) seem less connected to the origins and nature of their food.
Not the homesteaders, obviously 🥰
I was always told not to wash the eggs until ready to use, they would last longer. Guess that doesn’t stand true if you’re selling them
You can sell them unwashed IF whoever it is you are selling to wants them that way. The folks that buy mine want them washed. I sell mainly unwashed to folks who want to incubate them. Those are collected fresh the day of pick up ☺️ so it all depends.
Not supposed to wash eggs unto ready to use the.
If you water glass your eggs the bloom should not be washed off.
I chuckle when know-it-alls post their 'expertise'. 😂
@@AmyLouiseDens I've heard that too that they don't have to be refrigerated. She wasn't trying to be a know it all. Many of us have heard that.
😆 me too!
@@AmyLouiseDens IKR? 🤣😂
Omy goodness People🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
As a preference, my eggs ALWAYS will be washed.
I have known for 60 + years about the washed eggs vs unwashed drama **** and as a business person, im 💯 % sure that Heather does too. She has explained numerous times that her customers prefer washed eggs.
Please stop this Drama. Its mean spirited.
😆 I love you so much. ♥️💋 I have never gotten upset about people wanting washed eggs. Itynever offended me. It's extra work on my end but I don't mind if it makes people happy. 😆 I had no clue people would be in their emotions over something as trivial as this. 🫣😆 All I wanted to do is show and share the beautiful rainbow eggs in this video. 🥴
Why are you washing them? They last longer if you don’t wash them and you don’t have to refrigerate them.
Several reasons. Customers want them washed. I also have nowhere in my kitchen to store that many unwashed eggs. 😆
