They really enjoy eating alfalfa, as you can see. Alfalfa is exceptionally high in protein so it’s a great snack for these protein tanks! 😃

FAQ!

Q: What does "pasture raised" mean?
A: The USDA redefined "pasture raised" in March of 2025 to better distinguish pasture raised claims from free range claims. Free range simply means the chickens have access to outdoor space. The quality or quantity of that outdoor space is often limited and not well regulated. Pasture raised means the animal spent the majority of its life on pasture, which is defined as "land having rooted vegetative cover, grasses or plants."

Q: Are your chickens "grass fed" only?
A: No, our pasture raised chickens are fed grain-based feed with 20% protein. They live on pasture for more than half of their life, which allows them to forage additional calories. The pasture provides them access to insects, worms, and multiple species of legumes/grass including alfalfa, clovers, timothy, and fescue.

Q: What chicken breed do you raise?
A: The tried-and-true Cornish Cross!

Q: Are your chicks vaccinated or given anti-biotics?
A: No, we are very focused on biosecurity at Feather Lane Farm. We keep the chick brooders dry and clean, and we move the chicken tractors twice daily to ensure the chickens have fresh pasture to live on. This significantly reduces the threat of disease.

Q: How are your chickens processed?
A: We utilize a local processor to process our pasture raised chickens. We also have the capability to process our pasture raised chickens onsite!

Q: Are your chickens frozen?
A: Yes, our chickens are frozen on the day of processing and will be delivered to you frozen/freezer stable for over a year.

Q: How do you package your whole chickens?
A: We use poultry shrinking bags which remove most of the air from inside the packaging to create a freezer safe product.

Q: Does pasture raised chicken taste better?
A: We think so! The quality of the chicken's life absolutely dictates the end result. Pasture raised chickens have a richer flavor due to the improved lifestyle of the chicken. Foraging, fresh air, sunshine, and a clean environment all equate to a superior product!

Red/orange snacks make for darker yolks. Did you know that some commercial poultry farms feed their chickens paprika and marigolds to artificially darken the egg yolks?
