can I compost cooked egg yolk?
Comments (14)Composting is a bit of an art and can become an obsession! Putting cooked food in compost is ok for making good compost, but it encourages rats, so best not to. To achieve the best compost have layers of green and brown. Green being plants e.g. weeds, grass cuttings (soft plants) and brown being chopped up brambles & other hard stemmed plants, and shredded paper & cardboard but not too much per layer. Scrap uncooked food from the kitchen can be classed as either the green or the brown layer, but if that's all you ever put in the compost you'll end up with slime. Aim for crumbly dark brown earth like substance which feels clean in your hands and clean to smell. Each time you add a layer give it a watering, don't let it dry out completely. Turn the compost e.g. turn it with a shovel or lift it out and into another bin, every few months. Leave for at least 6-12 months before using. Have a few bins on 3 month availability if you have the space for them, so you always have enough. And remember, compost needs insects working away in it, so stand your compost bin on top of earth not concrete or tiles and don't disturb it too much until you need to turn it....See MoreInteresting eggs-photo
Comments (12)Yes, it is interesting how they build them like a layer cake. If you can, try to get a photo of the just hatched caterpillars. Supposedly they feed as a group in early instars. MissSherry, I probably have 10-15 mature trees in my backyard. It's like a celtis allee, with intermittent mature ulmus interspersed throughout, lol! I find my cats on the numerous seedlings and saplings that pop up around the yard. They are very overplanted here in Oklahoma in the cities, and not really an appropriate urban tree since they are so susceptible to various diseases and their seeds litter the ground, literally germinating whereever they land....See MoreRecipe For Perfect Hard Cooked Eggs
Comments (7)I use a similar method but not a steamer basket. I cover the eggs with cold water, bring to boil, remove from heat and cover for 17 minutes, drain pot and add cold water, drain the cold water, put lid on pot and shake vigorously which cracks the shells. The shells remove very easily. It's good to know we are not too old to learn new things!...See MoreFound Some Red Admiral Caterpillars and Mystery Eggs
Comments (27)I looked up Apanteles and came upon a list of what looked like about a thousand species! Still, whatever it is, it's common enough that what I have down here is undoubtedly the same as what you have up there. I'll guess it's a tiny wasp that depends wholly on red admirals for its existence - I've never seen a braconid wasp like it. You usually see big braconid wasp cocoons on the backs of big sphinx moth cats - these little things get enough to eat off the tiny little hatchlings and/or early instar caterpillars. I released my first red admiral (a big one, probably a female) from the last batch, which was small. 'Hope I get more, but they don't always lay eggs in summer, even though there's always a 'road admiral' on my gravel road in the late evening - strange. Sherry...See Moredcarch7 d c f l a s h 7 @ y a h o o . c o m
