We often get comments in regard to eggs:
“$6 for non free range birds?”
“I only eat free range/pasture raised eggs” etc.
I get it, everyone has their preferences. But here’s a little behind the scenes reality of free range birds. This is the third hen attacked by a fox in the past few weeks. Thankfully, I think we’ll be able to save her (thank god, she’s so sweet), but the other two weren’t so lucky. Basically a free range bird, is usually a dead bird because every other animal wants to eat them.🙄
Our birds may not be free ranged 24/7, but they do have a balanced, healthy, happy life. If you stop by the stand, chances are you’ll see them out sun/dust bathing or ruining my flower beds and me chasing & yelling after them. At the end of the day, I’d personally choose eggs from local hens I can actually see over a carton at Walmart that was shipped in from another state any day. 🤷🏼♀️
Ps - if you saw me over the weekend in the front yard, pajamas on newborn in my arms screaming into the woods, no you didn’t & no I’m not crazy. I was just telling the fox where to go & how to get there aggressively😂
