Our young pullets have started laying light brown LARGE size Grade A eggs from our Dominque and other heritage type chickens. We let our chickens free-range in a greenhouse which we attached to our barn. We allow our hens to graze on pasture in the afternoons. (We have a problem with a raskley chicken hawk that hangs around in the mornings) Our feed is a laying mix bought locally. We also feed greens from the garden each day. Overall I feel that we produce a quality product at a fair price. The chickens have a quality stress free life and produce great eggs.

DOZEN LARGE EGGS. OK, there's nothing fancy about these barnyard hens. I raised them by hand, I make sure they are nutritionally sound and they lay some GREAT tasting 2+ ounce eggs. I can't tell you anything about Non-this or Non-that because that doesn't enter into my farm. They get plenty of greens from the garden - both "weeds" and extra plantings. They are happy, safe and well cared for; thus, their eggs are delicious, and that is enough for me.

Compare the price and you'll find this is a good deal on a DOZEN MEDIUM EGGS. These weigh between 1.75 and 1.98 ounces. They taste just as delicious as the larger ones because the hens were hand raised, are well cared for and I make sure they are nutritionally sound. Shell color has nothing to do with the nutritional content of the egg, but these are pretty in colors of white, almost pink, blue, green, brown, and I have one hen laying lavender eggs. You get Easter a few weeks early.

These are small sized eggs (1.7oz to 1.5oz). They make a nice boiled egg topping for salads and greens. Old folks, who have raised chickens all their lives, have told me time and again that these small, "pullet" eggs are so much better tasting that the larger eggs, and are great for "pop-in-you-mouth" boiled eggs. Apparently the yolk is creamier and the white is softer or not as rubbery. Give it a try. My children used to love eggs "just their size".
