Our non-GMO feed
Supplementing our animals diets with NON-genetically modified feed, is a high priority for us. This is why we travel to Stuarts Draft, VA each month to haul 3 tons of feed back to our farm. Check out their website. You will learn about the feed we use and why this small, family run farm is so special! www.sunrisefarm.net
All About Eggs!
When you go to the grocery store, the eggs on the shelf are usually 2 - 4 weeks old when they arrive at the store!
Sometimes you will find a blood spot on the yolk. This does not mean that the egg is fertilized. It is only a blood vessel on the yolk's surface that ruptured during the egg's formation. A blood spot can also indicate the egg's freshness, as the egg ages the yolk takes up water from the albumen, diluting the blood spot. They are fine to eat, but you can remove the blood spot with the tip of a butter knife if needed.
The chalaza is the white rope-like strands that anchor the yolk. They are not imperfections, nor to indicate the beginnings of an embryo. They do not interfere with cooking and do not need to be removed. It also reflects the freshness of an egg, the more predominant the chalaza, the fresher the egg.
