Here the chicken always comes before the egg.
Free to roam
Our hens are fair dinkum free range, having unrestricted access to the outdoors at all times. We use the term pasture raised.
They live out of mobile caravans and are regularly moved around the property to fresh pasture which is managed holistically with regenerative farming practices.
The hens are open range (no cages or chicken fences!) with a very low stocking density of less than 200 hens per hectare. There’s plenty of room for everyone to exhibit natural behaviours.
Diet
The hens will naturally forage for grass and bugs.
Their diet is supplemented by a grain mix which has been developed by a qualified nutritionalist. A majority of the grain we use is grown right here on farm, ensuring we know that it was grown with care for the environment and with no chemicals sprayed onto the crop.
Health & well-being
These happy hens are guarded day and night by a maremma guardian dog.
Replacement hens are purchased at point of lay from reputable growers. They receive industry-standard vaccinations at Day 1 for several diseases. They are not beak trimmed or wing clipped and are given only natural treatments for their health as needed.
Our hens are raised naturally and produce delicious and nutritious eggs.
