Eggs are often in high demand and short supply! Please email us to be placed on the weekly waitlist. We would be happy to set aside eggs for you. --> pastured@heartbarfarm.com
Dozens will be mostly brown eggs but will include an occasional blue or green egg.
We are raising more laying hens to help keep up with demand. It takes around 6 month from baby chick to adult laying-hens. Our egg ladies appreciate your love and patience during all the ups and downs from the summer heat, hurricanes, molting, and all the growing months to reach maturity!

Our eggs have not been graded as to quality and weight. This means the regular eggs may vary in size from large to extra large. **We do separate out eggs which are a little smaller and that may wiggle around in the carton. Those somewhat smaller eggs are sold in what we refer to as "pullet" dozens. Those will contain medium to medium-large sized eggs, on average, that are just not large enough for the regular egg dozens.
The term "pullet" refers to a young laying hen that is not yet laying eggs. We consider this as the hens teenager months. Chicken eggs will start out smaller until the hen matures into a full adult. Based on a multitude of factors, some hens just never lay large eggs...so we sell these for a little less per dozen though they are still delicious and just perfect for scrambled or fried eggs. Use in recipes varies based on your needs.
