They have a better feed conversion ratio and brown birds housed cage free have a lower mortality rate compared to brown birds in cages. Selecting the right birds is the first step in setting up a successful free range farm. Check out our website and, if you are serious, read our eBook on running your own farm.

Eggs help beat 'cost of living' crisis

 In these  times of supposed‘cost of living challenges’ there are many choices to be made, including effective ways to eat well. Canadian dietician Abbey Sharp says eggs are an easy, inexpensive protein to lean on during times of economic uncertainty. She confirms that a single egg has about 6 grams of protein. It is also a complete source of protein,  containing all nine essential amino acids our bodies can’t make on their own. Eggs are also a healthy source of Vitamin A and D, iron, choline and other nutrients. Often the choice is simple: meet your living costs or support lifestyle choices, such as holidays or bigger and better gadgets!
