      Oh i’ve had many a delicious vegan treats. But i’m not a vegan. I’ve raised chickens before for eggs and meat. It’s looking like I will have to do it again this year! Like I told the other guy. The need for brownies is real. Poor people deserve fair access to brownies.

        Real quick aside if ya can get a turkey hen and have the land for one or two they produce slightly bigger eggs than an americana hen. Also they may be easier to get since dumb yuppies in my area are going after chickens but not the quail or turkeys, only problem is it takes a bit longer for a turkey hen to start producing.

          I do not. I would just check online, there are plenty of companies that will ship fertilized eggs.Incubators are easy to use. I wish you luck on your hunt and hope you get a nice chicken friend.

            We usually also get fertilized eggs when we can, just a bit easier to get the chicks when I’m at the feed store. Anyways our hens and turkey are doing rather well, their pen turning into a mud pit from recent rain aside. They have a sheltered area that’s dry it’s just that about 30 percent of the open area is mud.

        There are a few vegan bakeries around me that make all sorts of delicious stuff but I do agree that its hard for most people to go from perfectly mixed boxed cake mix to having to bake from scratch to make it egg free.

        Personally I dont see why people wouldnt at least consider both if they aren’t vegan. I much prefer waffles made with apple sauce for example. Sort of unrelated but mashed potatoes with olive oil instead of milk and butter is also better in my opinion.

          There are vegan bakeries around me as well and they’re not that great. It’s fine for vegans, but it’s either objectively worse or not a baked good for just about anyone else. You really do NEED eggs to bake successfully. Making disgusting butter cookies isn’t a substitute or healthy.
