Product List Dairy and Eggs – Eggs

White, brown and occasional blue or green chicken eggs from our pastured birds. We do not sort our eggs by size, so your dozen may include a variety of sizes as well as colors.

Our birds are pastured, but do not free range, due to heavy predator pressure. During winter, they are still in their mobile coops, but under cover to provide wind and snow protection. We feed organic grain-based feed from Wagon Wheel Farm near Bruno, Nebraska. Please note that this feed includes soybean meal.

Our egg number is N-3945.

Jumbo, brown eggs. Omega-3 fortified. All eggs are washed, candled, and weighed.

Hastreiter Farms is a small local farm in the Madison, Nebraska/Norfolk, Nebraska area. We have been in operation as a chicken farm since 2019. While we are not an organic farm, we strive to be as close to organic as possible. We believe in doing what is right by our animals and our customers. All of our chickens (broilers and hens alike), turkeys, and ducks are allowed to free range as they are able given our Nebraska weather.

Our happy hens are responsibly raised in a kind, humane environment and fed a diet rich in Omega-3. Omega-3 (derived from flax seed) is an essential fatty acid required by our bodies and obtained through our diets. Our eggs have up to 250 mg of Omega-3 per egg versus a store-bought egg which typically has 50 mg of Omega-3.
