I am a sixth generation farmer growing food for consumption and raising livestock
Me too I do a whole combination of different things from raising field crops, orchards, vineyards, poultry, to even taking care of livestock. Do you have a favorite farm animal? 
The beef cattle make the most money and the pigs are big profit makers but my favorites are the pigs and poultry
My favorite is the cow,  WE use them to make products like leather and also use their manure or fuel and composts. 
I can see that we also make butter and cream as well as sell the milk from ours
Thats another reason the cow is my fave, their milk is know to contain many nutrients like protein and lactose. You cant beat fresh milk from a cow. 
I love eating eggs from my own free ranged poultry they have so much more flavor and have to be healthier because they are free range and fresher
Heck yeah, My family and I commonly consume eggs all the time, Of course all of them are chicken eggs. I never tried eggs from other birds though.
