Our hens provide us with wonderfully tasting eggs of a wide variety shell colours. The taste of their eggs is simply superb. Here is why:
- varied diet with lots of greens,
- happy lives,
- they are allowed to do what all healthy hens love doing: having soil baths, basking in the sun and pecking to their hearts’ content…
Guests that visit our holiday cottages have an opportunity to try these beautiful eggs.
