	TS has some good breeds in terms of eggs.  We got a dozen last year to 
replenish those that god damned golden eagle ate (I WILL shoot that 
sumbitch one day) and they are laying very large eggs.  The geese are 
laying as well.  Hope they survive this year.  All the eggs went bad, 
save one, last year due to the high heat.  The one that hatched was 
promptly eaten by something in the night.  It makes me angry so I don't 
think about it.
