The Benefits of Pastured Eggs!!

Did you know??

Eating 1-2 pastured eggs fried in pork lard each morning will keep your tummy full till noon!!  No need for morning snacks!

As a Homeschooling mom who needs energy & doesn’t have alot of extra time to keep up with my kiddos this is Important to me!!

  • Loaded with Vitamins!! A Superfood!

    1. The essential vitamins A & D will not be in eggs unless the chickens are on pasture in the sunlight eating green grass.

    2. The deeper & darker orange colored yolk, the higher the levels of fat-soluble vitamins you will have.

      Feel Great about giving these superfoods to your children!!


  • No Soy in their diet!

  1. Soy depletes the vitamin D a chicken naturally stores

  2. Soy free eggs have 6 x higher vitamin D levels

  3. Children are negatively affected  by consuming soy-fed eggs; allergies, premature sexual development, etc.

  4. Most all soy in the U.S. is gmo

    Nearly all commercial chicken feed has soy mixed in!

  • The naturally occurring Vitamin D protects your skin from sun damage & Supports healthy vision.

    Yes!! I’ll take that!!

  • Pastured eggs are high in proteins!!

A little story on how protein loaded these eggs are...

Recently we were at a family wedding in another state and we stopped at a motel on the way home.

The next morning we went to eat at the motel's breakfast bar & several of us got the 2-egg omelet they served. 

I went back for more… & ate  2 more of those omelets!!

It didn’t occur to me until later that day how much I had eaten!

  The eggs had looked ok but didn't satisfy my hunger!! 

At home I'll eat 2 eggs & be filled till lunch!

  I had always heard pastured eggs were higher in protein, & now I had experienced it first hand!

Where do I get pastured eggs?

Here at Borntrager Dairy we sell pastured eggs.

We have a local farmer who raises them & brings the eggs to sell at our farm store.

He has his "chicken tractor" out in the pasture.

He runs his milk cows over the pasture, & then he brings the chickens behind them.

He also grinds his own supplemental feed so no GMO's or soy are added. 

Regardless if you buy your pastured eggs at our farm store or someone else, please be sure to find out how they are raised! 

Happy Eating,
