“LAYLA’S” FREE-RANGE EGGS All-Natural
BEAUTIFUL, DELICIOUS EGGS FROM THE HICKORY HENS!
*NOW AVAILABLE***
*Due to the superiority of unwashed fresh eggs over washed, customers have the choice of preference. Please leave a note at checkout if you want your eggs UNWASHED.
-Eggs come with a natural PROTECTIVE ‘bloom’ coating that allows eggs properly stored (cool dark place, yep, the average room temperature is just fine!!) to last unrefrigerated for at least 3 weeks (think of the time the Mama Hen sits to incubate her eggs…much warmer conditions than the average home). Mine have been good for up to 2 months. Once washed, eggs must be kept refrigerated. Once you decide to refrigerate unwashed eggs, first rinse off in warm water (not cold) to be sure that potentially present microbes are pulled out/away from the surface pores of the eggshell. Just like washing the face, -*before chilling*.

The girls (and their roosters) roam freely throughout the day... helping me in the garden, or foraging in the weeds and the woods for whatever strikes their fancy. They live an all-natural lifestyle, including diet and medications.
My 'mighty eagles', as I call them, are part of the family and will continue enjoying life to its fullest long after their egg laying duties are over.
A few of their favorite things . . .
Favorite Treat: Cantaloupes (especially the seeds! ~and pecking the rind bowl clean) Favorite Insect: Moths Favorite Weeds: Anything growing in the vegetable garden that isn't actually a weed... Favorite Thing to Do: Roam the garden in search of ripe tomatoes, they call "piñatas"... |
