  9. These eggs are amazing I would recommend anyone buy them they are still
    cheap when you think about the cost of protein in general.

  12. Check their website, they are not sent to slaughter after they stop
    producing.

  13. I love this approach at eggs. They are expensive ($6 a dozen) but so worth
    it if you care about the animals that provide them. I do have some
    questions though- how long do the hens live at the farm? Are they sent to
    slaughter when they stop producing? Important information for me.

  14. My family buys these eggs at Whole Foods in Plano,TX..they are a quality
    product and we don’t have to worry about any salmonella breakouts! And yes
    it is a normal way eggs are produced and should be produced in this
    country.

  18. How ever do you protect the hens from predators with that open field
    approach? Pasture raising – I think he calls it.

  20. I am very interested in your setup, how do you go about getting started
    selling your eggs? I dont have near as many hens as you guys have right now
    its just to feed us and give away to family and friends, we get between 20
    and 30 eggs a day out of our girls, 21 of them to be exact, but what hoops
    do you have to jump through to sell them? I have enough land to do what you
    have done, just not sure with all the regulations as to where to start,
    love what you guys have done!!!
