For years, eggs have gotten a bad reputation— but science tells a different story.

The yolk is packed with essential vitamins, healthy fats, and nutrients your body actually needs.

Research now shows that eggs don’t raise cholesterol the way we once feared and can absolutely fit into a balanced diet.

Nourishing, affordable, and incredibly versatile, eggs are a powerhouse protein that support energy, satiety, and overall wellness.

Sometimes, real health starts with unlearning old myths.

Tagalong Eggs year end report....

Over 2025, our hens produced 9,593 eggs.

Those are eggs that we collected and packed. There is easily several hundred more that we did not find, were broken, cracked or found days/weeks after they were layed.

Our hens are pretty consistent, but every now and then we find a new nesting area with dozens of eggs in it. We destroy those eggs, but then start checking that location daily.

There are also a few dozen that have hatched as well. A few of the chicks died, but over all 14 additional birds were born here on property and have joined the flock.

We lost one hen last year to a racoon. We lost four hens last year to domestic violence. One of our roosters seemed to like it rough, he is no longer with us.

We are averaging about 800 eggs a month with our slowest months being in May and June and increased production in the colder months. Got to love my Ukrainian Chickens!

Working the math, that's 800 DOZEN eggs a year, 66 Dozen a month.

The girls really worked hard this fall, we removed a few Roosters (five) and they worked even harder.

Through "FREE EGG FRIDAY" we are giving away about 40 dozen a month into the local community. The rest we sell, gives to friends and family or use on the ranch.

Right now we are running three flocks. The main flock (about 40 strong) resides inside the enclosed coop. The second flock (about 20 strong) reside inside the goat house, and spend most of the day roaming the property.

Then there are a dozen or so stragglers that kind of do their own thing and move around un-teathered.

Not sure of our actual hen/chicken count, as many know chicken math can get "fuzzy". I am thinking somewhere between 55-70 overall.

According to the boss, the chickens cover their expense. Simply, we sell enough eggs to cover feed costs and are thrilled to be able to give the rest away into the community.

When we first got chickens, it was to be a fun project. The first dozen chickens, all of sudden turned into 27 and two days later that turned into 42.

Then came another 18.

Then came another 3

Then another 9

It's called "Chicken Math".

We lost a couple along the way and it's all part of the process. Young chicks shipped in from the hatchery sometime don't do well over the first few days.

Right now we are somewhere around 70 birds, give or take.

We use to count them every night to make sure they were all accounted for, but now with multiple coops, timed doors, free range areas, they all seem to come and go as they please.

The four roosters set the pace and things just seem to happen naturally.

We have another 10-15 being born this week, and my hunch is that before fall, we should be around a hundred laying hens give or take a few.

That will be someplace north of 33,000 eggs now projected in the next twelve months. That's 2,700+ dozen eggs.

Our eggs are the highest quality. All organic, non-gmo, amazing hard shells and the perfect brown color and size.

This is not for the fain of heart. With the increased egg prices a over the last year, everyone wants back yard chickens. I wish it were that easy.

I think that before we got our first egg, we easily and $10,000 invested between the coop, nesting boxes, water system and feed.

The actual baby chicks are the cheapest part of the entire process.

What most people do not realize is that you run to Tractor Supply and get a few chicks. Great... You need to realize that from that moment forward you have six to eight months before you see a single egg. Six to eight months of feed, water, cleaning the coop and caring for each and every bird.

Then is the constant monitoring of the flock. Yesterday I got 39 eggs. On Saturday I got 51 eggs. Why the difference? Is everyone doing well?

Learning what keeps a laying hen happy and healthy is all part of the process.

So, when you are offered eggs from a local small business at $4 to $5 a dozen, remember, it's nothing like what you get at Walmart for $2.97 a dozen.

It's FRESH

It's possibly organic, free range and non-gmo

It's LOCAL

These hens are out and about. Not in a cage 24 hours a day pumped full of chemically engineered food designed to produce more eggs.

What do you want going into your body? What do you want your family to eat?

When you support a local farmer, you not only get a MUCH better product, but you support the local economy.

TWENTY-FIVE THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED..

It looks like this: 25,500

That's the number of eggs that Tagalong Eggs hens are going to produce over the next 12 months.

These are free range, organic, non-gmo and about highest quality eggs that money can buy.

This morning I told a customer that we were at $4.00 per dozen right now or $3.50 if you have your own carton. I do that as cartons have a $0.48 cost factor for us buying them as we do.

I was told that they can get eggs cheaper at Walmart.

YES, YOU CAN. Please do so.

Farm Fresh eggs are of a much higher quality than grocery store eggs. Especially when you are dealing with free range hens, hens getting the highest quality organic, non-gmo feed when they are not free-ranging. Eggs that are collected daily are usually only 2-3 days old when you get them.

Do you know how old the eggs are at your local grocery store?

On average over three weeks, sometimes more than a month.

Do you think that in the large production egg farms that the hens have an amazing quality of life? No. They are confined to a 12" box. They eat, lay the egg for the day and repeat. After 12-18 months of laying eggs, they are pulled from egg production and sent to be slaughtered for meat.

While they are laying they are pumped full of feed that is chemically modified to increase egg production, pushing their bodies well past what nature intended.

When you buy a dozen eggs or two dozen, they all look identical.. That is due to the chemicals the birds get. All eggs are exactly the same color, same size, same weight, same shell thickness, same same same..

You think that happens naturally?

We have 60 of the exact same breed hens. Some of our eggs are bigger than others, some are a tad browner, a tad lighter, a tad larger, a tad smaller. That is how nature intended it.

So, yes, eggs at Walmart are $2.72 this morning. Farm Fresh eggs are $4.00 this morning.

Isn't the difference worth it for a quality product?

Taking reservations for eggs next week.

Our eggs have been in such high demand, we have been selling out faster than our hens can lay them. Even with a production of over 15,000 eggs a year from our fifty hens.

If you need Tagalong Eggs, PLEASE PLEASE get on our list and let us know. That way we can hold a dozen or two for you.

If you have not experienced Tagalong Eggs, you are missing out.

Our large brown eggs are AMAZING. Thick shells, bright orange yolks and always farm fresh. Blowing away anything store bought as well as local farms.

Our "secret recipe" is having happy hens. Our hens have an incredible diet, free range and handsome roosters to protect them allowing them to live the life of luxury and produce the finest quality eggs.

Full Moon? Warm Weather?

I'm not sure what it is, perhaps our hens are just hard workers, but they are seriously overachieving this week.

We continue to get one and sometimes two eggs a day from each of our hens. Perhaps it's the air conditioned comfort of the hen house keeping them inside and laying or the amazing feed and high protein diet they are on.

Not sure, but again.. we've got boatloads of fresh eggs!!!!

We were wondering why our egg count has been down the last couple of days. Seems a few of our hens set up their own nesting box under the stairs out to the coop. Twenty farm fresh eggs just waiting for me.

Good girls!!!!!!
