Guest guest Posted May 3, 2005 Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 Carly? ? <Free-range could simply mean that they are not caged,> Here in California, the two designations are " uncaged " and " free range. " Uncaged is what you describe in terms of being cooped up, often on a dirty concrete floor. Free range doesn't necessarily mean they have grass to eat, but the barn door has to be open for at least some of the time, and if their range is restricted to a small space of dirt, hopefully they get a little more exercise, some fresh air, and a few bugs here and there. I've been buying eggs from New Zealand. Awfully expensive, and they do get some grain, including soy, but in New Zealand I don't think the GM stuff is allowed, and it appears from the orange yolks that these ladies are mostly on grass. http://www.taichi4seniors.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted May 3, 2005 Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 Terry, I get these eggs through Whole Foods, which I think is a national chain (I'm in Calif.). But I was able to talk another health/grocery store into carrying them as well by giving them the website addy and also the name of the Calif. distributor. Unfortunately, that info was on my case box ( I buy 6 dozen at a time) which I've thrown away, but you could google for Frenzs. You might add New Zealand to the search. Good luck! http://www.taichi4seniors.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 3, 2005 Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 We have a great local farm that distributes, only in egg-laying season, wonderful backyard eggs under the label " Politically Correct Eggs. " The label is quite humorous and more the point, the eggs are FANTASTIC. I also buy some pastured eggs through my local raw feeding co-op (raw feeding for dogs, that is). Very tasty but not quite as good as the others. The rest of the time, I get Chino Valley Farms certified organic omega 3 eggs. They taste fine but not great.

Very tasty but not quite as good as the others. WHAT??? You're feeding your dogs eggs that aren't quite as good as the ones you feed yourself?
