Here's an interesting fact you might not be aware of: Legally, an egg can be sold up to 30 days after it's been placed in a carton. Additionally, farmers have up to 30 days from when the egg is laid to when it's packaged for sale. This means the eggs you find in supermarkets could be as much as two months old by the time you purchase them, and they can have a sell-by date of up to four to six weeks later. Consequently, the "fresh eggs" you're buying could be over three months old by the time you eat them. This is why the free-range eggs from our own contented hens taste remarkably different and are bursting with goodness and nutrition—they benefit from a natural diet and are truly fresh.

This little guy was left abandoned and cold in the nest. I thought it was dead. Two hours later after my husband sat with it in his palms. It’s dry, warm and chirping. Nature can be amazing 🤩

The RSPCA recently executed a warrant at a smallholding and removed a number of animals, including a large number of game-type chickens.

These birds are now ready for re-homing, and are a mixture of hens and cockerels, so if anyone is interested please contact the clinic to let us know.
