Hi, many thanks for the course on saturday; it was very reassuring as far as actually dispatching a bird is concerned. I found it a much calmer experience than I could possibly have envisaged-thank you very much for that- I know now that I can do what needs to be done whether in emergency or because I am rearing birds for meat.
Regards Caroline Kane.

Nutritional Value of an Egg
Eggs are a source of high quality protein, essential for building and repairing body tissue. Muscles, organs, skin, hair as well as antibodies, enzymes and hormones are all made from protein. Protein is composed of 20 different amino acids. There are 9 essential amino acids the body cannot make, so they must come from foods.
Eggs are one of the few foods considered to be a complete protein source because they provide all 9 essential amino acids as well as 9 non-essential ones. With a biological value of protein a 93.7%, eggs score higher than any other food. The egg white consists mainly of high quality protein. In fact, the protein in an egg is so ideal that it has been used as the standard against which other foods are judged. Protein is the basic material of life. We need it for building and repairing body tissues and producing antibodies, which fight infection.
Eggs are one of the few foods that naturally contain vitamin D.
