How Nutritious Are Free Range Eggs?
Because our chickens lay their eggs in nesting boxes (in the wagon), very seldom is an egg found on the ground. Our eggs are gathered daily. They are lower in cholesterol because our hens are eating salad (grass) which lowers their cholesterol, enabling them to lay an egg with lower cholesterol. The yolks are firm and a nice dark yellow/orange. This coloring of the yolk reflects a diet with high levels of chlorophyll and low levels of saturated fat.
