]]> There are so many options for the type of eggs to buy, that it can get extremely overwhelming knowing which egg is right for you. There’s cage-free, free-range, organic, pasture-raised – what’s the best option? If the egg aisle is giving you a headache with all the terminology, this is the guide for you.Β 

Cage-Free

What this term means is that the chickens are not in cages, which is the worst scenario for a chicken. However, this doesn’t mean they’re running around happily. They are still most likely in a dark and crowded barn or building where they are not exposed to light or the great outdoors, but since they aren’t in cages, companies are free to use this term for marketing.Β 

Free Range

Again, this term is more of a marketing scheme than it leads to believe. While these kinds of eggs come from chickens who have not been in cages, they aren’t roaming free on a pasture all day long. Rather, they are allowed to be outside for a certain amount of time in their life, but it’s usually minimal.Β

πŸ“πŸ“πŸŒžSolstice GiveawayπŸŒžπŸ“πŸ“ Who’s ready for backyard chickens?! To celebrate the solstice (which I am weirdly experiencing as the winter solstice here in Australia) I am hosting a special giveaway for @alchemistfarm ! The winner will receive a box of 15 chicks shipped of their various breeds that lay beautifully colored eggs. Sorry, U.S. entries only. πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ This is a short giveaway (who likes to wait?!) entries must be received my midnight Saturday June 22nd and the winner will be announced Sunday June 23rd. The winner can schedule their box of chicks to ship anytime between now and September so there is plenty of time to warm up that brooder. πŸ“ To enter : 1)Head on over to @alchemistfarm and give them a follow and make sure you are following me as well. 2) Under this post tag a friend who would like to keep beautiful and humanely raised backyard chickens. 3)Each friend tagged counts as an entry for you. One entry per line please. Multiple entries are allowed. πŸ₯šπŸ“πŸ₯šπŸ“πŸ₯šπŸ“ Swipe to see one of my beautiful hens from Alchemist Farm which I raised last year from chick. I sought out Alchemist Farm for my chicks because they offer beautiful, humanely raised chicks. No male chicks are culled, they run the farm on 100% renewable energy and are almost completely waste-free with their packaging. πŸ™ŒπŸ“πŸ™Œ

Organic

This relates to the type of feed the chickens are given, and with organic eggs comes organic feed. This isn’t telling about the conditions of the chickens, but you do know that what they are eating is organic and free of antibiotics, which means you aren’t ingesting anything unhealthy in that way.Β

Pasture Raised

This label is the truest, and these eggs come from chickens who only graze on pastures their entire life.Β
