Leghorn chicken (shell is
generally white) or from
native chickensss
2. Quail Eggs – are small with

to baked dishes and have a
grayish thick shell.

TYPES OF EGGS ACCORDING
TO HOW ARE FED AND

1. Omega-3 – the only
difference between regular
eggs and omega 3 eggs is that
the hens are fed with omega
3fatty acid source, such as flax
seed. They are confined to
cages and do not have access
to litter, perches or nest.
2. Nest-laid – may seem
promising, but this only
means hens have access to a
nest or perch within the
confines of their cages.
3. Cage-free – hens are not
confined to a cage, however,
that does not mean they have
access to the outdoors, or that
there are any requirements for
how much space they have or
for what feed or medicines
they may be receiving
4. Free-run – hens are able to
roam in open-range barns, but
do not have access to the
outdoors and may not have
access to natural light.
However, they are usually
provided access to nests,
perches and litter.
5. Free-range – hens are able
to roam on open-range barns
and are given access to the
outdoors (and natural light),
when weather permits. They
are also usually provided
access to nests, perches and
litter.
6. Organic – hens meet the health
and welfare standards with open
range barns, natural light indoors,
free access to pasture outdoors
and always have access to nests,
perches and litter. They are also
fed 100% organic feed and are
always provided with clean, fresh
water
