JoeG Coop Cleaner Registered: 11/16/11 Posts: 150 Loc: NY	I am just wondering if the taste of there egg will change depending on what they eat, and if so what foods and how much?

Or search the Net for a list of ingredients and their effect on egg taste. If eggs taste fishy, this can be an inherited trait to steer away from. It is inherited, I don't know if the fishy taste can also be caused by what they eat. Best Regards, Karen in western PA, USA Edited by Karen T. (05/17/12 09:51 PM)
