Our hens spend their days out on pasture in the sunshine and fresh air, searching for bugs and and feasting on extra garden produce. We supplement them with Cashton's organic layer feed, and freshly sprouted organic whole oats. The hens have about 2 square feet of space per chicken inside their insulated house, and there is room for all to roost. True pasture-raised eggs are higher in choline, omega-3s, and vitamins A, E, D, and K, than commercial eggs. You can tell by the color of the yolk. Many of our eggs have a deep yellow or orange yolk, whereas commercial eggs tend to have a pale yellow yolk (even those labeled "pastured" or "cage-free" as USDA definitions of these words are weak). Every carton from Granja Las Aguilas has a mix of white and brown eggs, and you may even see a blue or green egg from our heritage breed hens! Egg shell color is genetically determined by breed, and has no effect on what is inside the egg. They are all equally nutritious and delicious. *Note: If yours is the only delivery scheduled for a specific time and location, we may contact you to reschedule it.
