Our
main flock of laying hens consist of Brown Leghorns
and Plymouth Rock Barred. We have recently
added Rhode Island Reds and Dominiques that will be
laying eggs in about a month. Our hens are fed
a healthy diet of scratch grains and laying mash
along with some free-range grazing.
Research shows that
non-commercial eggs have lower cholesterol and more
nutritional value. Also, despite all the bad
press that eggs get, they are still considered the
"perfect food". In fact, one egg
contains almost all the nutrients necessary for life
lacking only Vitamin C.
Our country eggs sell for
$2.00 a dozen and are available in brown or white.
