One of the best parts of this video is that I came here to learn something in a timely manner and did not have to sit through 20 minutes of pontifications. Word to all you “homestead” vloggers. Get to the point.
Thank you! Because sometimes that is simply all the time we have. I’ve been catching up on learning new things like making vinegar, canning and this simply works best because it is short and to the point. And now I have to run down to my local chicken farm and get some unwashed eggs 😂
It's sad because I think they're all trying to be helpful, but I must agree. I have unsubbed from many vloggers because there is so many "stories" to tell and imparting of knowledge of other things than what you're looking for. But it's all appreciated, just some are better at getting to the point! 😁
I am excited to try this! My neighbor graciously offered to give me one dozen eggs weekly simply because I do not fuss about her chickens feeding in my yard. So, I guess my kindness is being repaid 12- fole!!!! A true blessing.
I like that you did in 5 minutes 30 seconds what seems to take everyone else 15 to 20 minutes! We are doing our first batch of eggs, started this evening 2/1/2023. Thanks for the education!!❤
I still had to fast forward it by 2x and actually gave up and just guessed on my ratios. She does a beautiful job with her videos but this could be a 1 minute vid. I was already frustrated from having lost as many minutes as I did on other people’s “tutorials” - that are really just a way to show off their homestead
Update:I used this technique 1 year ago and just opened up a jar I put them in. The lime had settled onto some of the egg surfaces and the bottom which is ok. I cracked each egg individually since I've never done this and they were all great! Tasted the exact same to us!! Only difference we noticed was the yolks were more runny.
I suggest candling before putting in solution to make certain there are no cracks. Not a bad idea to candle again before opening each. And I always crack each egg into a separate bowl and inspect before adding to other ingredients. That’s a good idea for any eggs.
Candling is holding the egg up to a light to see any shell cracks or internal issues. Big companies have mega automated machines that do this. I just use a small wattage light and my Mark 1 eyeballs. They call it candling because both the chicken and the egg were gifts to us before electricity was invented.
Fortunately, I have 8 young chickens that have laid daily all winter long while my older ones have not laid a single egg. this winter. However, I like this method of preservation and I especially like that I don't have to refrigerate the eggs. While I donate dozens of eggs to a local soup kitchen, I have run out of room in my refrigerator. I will start this as soon as I can get some lime. I thank you too for a very informative video with no fluff, just info.
Thank u! Am setting up another lot of them now. The first group of 70 I bought from local farm lasted 2 years! I kept notes from the start and carefully checked them each week since this was my first try. So great to have should the electricity go out! It worked perfectly!!
What a wonderful, straight to the point video. Thank you. There are 3 of us and we hardly eat eggs but have 51 chickens. What a great way to save them.
Next year's project for sure. I likely won't have extra eggs through the winter. I appreciate the short directions. All I wanted to know was how to do it. You covered that.
This video is incredible well done! Absolutely phenomenal. I was shocked that your subscriber count isn't higher, but then when I checked out your channel page it looks like you haven't posted any videos in a long time. Maybe you're not an active RUclipsr anymore? But I just wanted to drop the encouragement that if you DO want to continue to make videos, you do a fan-freakin'-tastic job, and I'm confident you can meet great success. :) I applaud you
great. We have a small farm and get about 15 - 20 eggs per day. I had a friend ask me if I would "can eggs" for winter for sale when production is down... I had never heard of canning eggs - I like the idea and ease of water glassing much better!! thanks for you tutorial : )
My mother in law sent this to me because I have soooo many eggs. But as a fellow RUclipsr, wow. I’m looking at the editing the story telling the videography, I thought I would take a blind guess and say you have 64k subs. Man you are talented. New subscriber here!!! 🎉
important - you can not use store bought eggs IF you are in the USA - they are washed and the protective coating has been removed. In the UK and places where they don't wash them, you can use store bought
Yeah, I picked that up. It's amazing that the eggs can't be washed. What about disease on the shell? I guess the hydrated lime kills anything on the shells.
Hard to believe they sell em anywhere with chicken crap all over em. More likely the uv sterilization or some other thing besides just rinsing with water
Fantastic video...after all our years with chickens, getting ready to do our first batch, even have a bucket/#2 from recycling center with a a screw on lid like yours 🐔
I really appreciate this video. It is a balance of well put together and to the point. You also made the process look easy and accessible. A stories chicken guide from the 1970s I found in a thrift store says you can take a towel to wipe off the eggs and preserve the bloom. I'm wondering if this is accurate? I think I would sooner donate the eggs than risk glassing bloomless eggs, but it would be very convenient to be able to do so.
You are precious and your family is blessed to have you as their own! Loved your video and calm, relaxing presentation. I am excited to preserve eggs, though I need to buy mine from someone who raises chickens.
You do. Eggs from the store are washed off so the protective coating can't prevent lime from penetration of the egg. Fresh, clean and never washed off.
Thank you for going through each step on how to keep eggs at room temp. I will pass this video onto my friends. I hope and pray that you and your family are doing well. May be strong in The Lord Jesus Christ.
Why do you have to slip in a religious message in a simple comment, huh? Can you not keep your religion to yourself? Every chance to comment, you god squad Christians must make it about religion. Truly irritating. I don't talk to you about the Buddha, or Mohammed, or Yahweh, or Shiva, or Kali, or Durga, do I? This is a secular forum not a religious one. Keep your gods on your own altars please.
A community lady sells me free range chicken eggs 2.00 doz. Found ur video n now iv been water glassing for winter when eggs go up altho already up at Walmart 60 ct $ 15.?? Use to be 5/8 bucks. Iv been saving my egg meat trays. Iv also learned to make my own plain yogurt too. I add fruit, maple syrup n vanilla. Oh I shared my 2nd time around watching ur lovely video.
I have some water glasses eggs. I bought them at an egg farm. I got them freshly laid, with the bloom intact, unwashed. Every month I cook some to see how they are. I put these in a bucket of water, with enough to fill it up with the eggs. Then stirred in some Hydrated Lime. THEN I carefully dropped carefully into the water, keeping the water over the eggs. I covered the bucked and put then in a closet. I just now tried one, which I do every month. Today, the whites are a bit thin and the yolk is somewhat flatter than normal. but it tasted good with no funky taste. It was fine. I put six dozen away in March 1st, I ate some evert couple weeks until I felt they would last, I have 4 dozen left. Not bad for unrefrigerated 5 month old eggs!
I have unwashed eggs that I put in the refrigerator. When I took them out of the refrigerator, they started to sweat. I surmised that I could not use these eggs as the "sweat" would wash the bloom off thus rendering them like washed eggs. Thanks and Blessings.
WOW! I'm really glad I found your video on water glassing eggs! Our son just recently bought some laying hens, he's been trying to explain to us about this very subject. Was tickled when I found your channel! Looking forward to more videos! God Bless and keep you and your loved ones!👍
I have been gathering and setting aside the cleanest eggs this past week and needed to know the ratio of water and pickling lime. This was a nice video. Thank you for sharing and I have subscribed to your channel!
Hello, Great video! I was wondering what area of the country/climate you're in and the temp of the area you store them. I am in Arizona and don't use AC much in the house so it gets fairly warm in the summer and just wondered how warm or cool it is where they are stored. It looks like an idiot proof system (and I am an idiot sometimes...lol) but seriously it looks simple as long as you measure the water and lime correctly. I have raised chickens for awhile and acquired more recently and have close to 30 now. I would like to be able to store long term eggs for the winter when the laying slows down some. I am at 5,000' so it does get cold here in the winter. lol, Everyone seems to think Arizona is flat, 100 degrees year round with cactus everywhere...well the last part is true mostly.
Thank you. Very informative. Never heard of this. I can't have chickens as I live within the city limits. If I move back to the country, I will certainly keep this in mind.
Just the same question as Ann Hoy….I’m hoping you can reply. When you dry the condensation from (refrigerated) previously unwashed fresh farm eggs, does that action remove the bloom? Or is dry brushing/using a loofah/rough cloth the way to go on (not yet refrigerated) eggs. I don’t want to glass the eggs and have them spoiled because I cleaned the bloom off unintentionally. Many thanks for your input!
Great video. Encouraged by your style and presentation. We just did this last night. I stirred in lime for long time, is it normal for it to all settle on bottom of jar? We did about 25-26 eggs in a gallon sealable jar
Hiya- thank you for a beautiful, descriptive, and encouraging video. Does your family’s food restrictions prevent you all from enjoying sourdough? I was hoping you would have a video, recipe, tips that I could learn from. Many thanks. I connect with your gentle and private ways and the desire to share your voice in this medium.
Get you some golf balls from Walmart. Put 2 in each nest box, this will make them think you haven't stolen their eggs. When you don't leave an egg or two they think a predator has gotten them and they will lay somewhere else.
Important Questions :)) After the lime settles can I still add eggs or do I need to add only after the stirring? Can I remove some and add some periodically being gentle? Does the settling of the lime reduce the effect of the protection from the surrounding water? Thanks guys!
@@CyberwizardProductions Are you saying you can stir it up even a month after you've added eggs already? My thought is if you stir it a while after you've added eggs that it would damage the coating of those older eggs and expose the pores to going bad. What do you think
@@lucidfarms I recommend you put in the bucket as much as you can each day until full and then leave it undisturbed, on a low surface... I started a big bucket and from moving it back and forth from the shelf to add more, some eggs ended up breaking. I only had it for a couple of months, I was able to use the unbroken eggs because I notice the broken ones right away. (Good thing the eggs were not in there broken for a long time) Now I'm just going to start a new buckets but this time they will be smaller to reduce the times I have to move it. Lesson learned! Hope it helps!
@@lucidfarms Put the eggs in a netting of some kind, even just cotton muslim or the like. Then you can pull them out at once to stir everything up etc.
I put up 150 eggs back in April of 2023. Started using this month. Questions:1 : When I crack them the sort of "Explode" and the whites go everywheres. 2: the yokes all seem to break when I place in a skillet to fry, ben making scrambled instead. 3: When I boiled a dozen, 10 out of the 12, all the shells cracked. Any comments that I might have done something wrong back in April or is this sort of normal? . They smell fine, and I've eaten them and they are tasty and no ill effects. Thanks in advance. God bless and have a great day!
One of the best parts of this video is that I came here to learn something in a timely manner and did not have to sit through 20 minutes of pontifications.
Word to all you “homestead” vloggers. Get to the point.
I agree. I need information not entertainment.
I've been making 2 and 3 minute videos for this reason !!
Thank you! Because sometimes that is simply all the time we have. I’ve been catching up on learning new things like making vinegar, canning and this simply works best because it is short and to the point. And now I have to run down to my local chicken farm and get some unwashed eggs 😂
It gets ridiculous I agree

I'd let chickens feed in my yard for a dozen eggs a week but I might snatch one every now and then for a nice chicken dinner. 🐔
@@rawbacon 🤣 I was raised on a farm, Dude. Nothing like fresh chicken. Quit giving me ideas!!
That isso awesome! Keep great relationship with your neighbors and #Godblessyou what a blessing to share. #Keepupthegreatwork
Wow! Truly a blessing! Eggs are too expensive nowadays
blessing indeed

Best Water Glassing video on RUclips.
I suggest candling before putting in solution to make certain there are no cracks. Not a bad idea to candle again before opening each. And I always crack each egg into a separate bowl and inspect before adding to other ingredients. That’s a good idea for any eggs.
What is candling?
Candling is holding the egg up to a light to see any shell cracks or internal issues. Big companies have mega automated machines that do this. I just use a small wattage light and my Mark 1 eyeballs. They call it candling because both the chicken and the egg were gifts to us before electricity was invented.
Fortunately, I have 8 young chickens that have laid daily all winter long while my older ones have not laid a single egg. this winter. However, I like this method of preservation and I especially like that I don't have to refrigerate the eggs. While I donate dozens of eggs to a local soup kitchen, I have run out of room in my refrigerator. I will start this as soon as I can get some lime. I thank you too for a very informative video with no fluff, just info.
From my experience, so far, young hens always lay their first winter (assuming they are the age to lay, of course).
Thank u! Am setting up another lot of them now. The first group of 70 I bought from local farm lasted 2 years! I kept notes from the start and carefully checked them each week since this was my first try. So great to have should the electricity go out! It worked perfectly!!

There are 3 of us and we hardly eat eggs but have 51 chickens. What a great way to save them.
In the future you might have not many options for protein
They have to have salmonella already but they will float if bad
@evangus I disagree evangus.

Fresh Eggs All Year! and healthier chickens not being manipulated by artificial lights and power durring the winter months.

Hey everyone, water glass is sodium silicate, not lime. This is pretty weird that so many don't understand that.

Its in the video. 1 ounce of lime to 1 quart water.
I bought one pound bags of pickling lime in the canning section at Wally-World and mix 1 bag with 4 gallons of distilled water.
Love your video. I am Looking into adding enough salt, or molasses so I can keep them where they could freeze.

Is there any difference on the taste?
