Seriously, someone come take these! I raise chickens in the yard, more for enjoying their quirky personalities than for self sufficiency. (Eggs are cheep. Chiken feed isn't.) This is what happens when my family gets sick of eating eggs for a few days..

On occasion they help themselves to a cracked egg. They get loads of kitchen scraps. Usually production and demand are more equalized (household of 6 + Co workers and neighbors) but one does get sick of eggs.. sometimes we get these piles. Like if we go on vacation or don't see the neighbors much. I'll probably pickle about half of these with beets. Mostly just wanted to share a comically large pile of eggs. In the winter when the daylight shortens, they lay far less and I won't even have enough for baking. Nothing makes me more bitter than buying a carton of eggs from the grocery in February...
