Lifecycle Comparison
Pasture Raised
Continuous free access to the outdoors and vegetative cover throughout their usual “grow out period.” Mobile coops are moved daily to ensure birds always have access to fresh pasture.
Free Range
Fixed houses with small pop-outs that can generally only accommodate a very small percentage of the house population. The pop-outs usually lead to enclosed porches and are often on top of concrete slabs, gravel, or denuded ground (dirt).
Barn/Factory Raised
Similar to free range systems, but there is no visibility to the outdoors. The houses are fully enclosed.
FAQs
How much time do the birds spend on the pasture?
Our birds live the first 3 weeks of their lives in the brooder so they can develop their feathers to better regulate their own body temperature. As soon as they are ready, they move out to the pasture for the remainder of their lives where they can run around in the grass and forage freely.
What kind of nutrients make up the supplemental, organic feed?
Their certified organic feed can include any of the following ingredients: soy, corn, sorghum, sunflower, alfalfa, vitamins, and trace minerals.
How often are the birds moved?
They’re moved to a new section of pasture every day!
What is the major differentiator between our birds and the standard American chicken?
The active outdoor lifestyle of our birds, in tandem with our certified organic feed and certified organic pasture, leads to a happier, healthier, and tastier chicken as opposed to confined animal feeding operations (CAFOs) that make up over 99% of chicken sold in the U.S. food system.
What is regenerative about our farm?
Healthy birds start with healthy soil. Microorganisms, with the help of sunshine and clean water, help break down chicken manure into vital nutrients that feed the soil biology. When the chickens move back to the re-nourished section of land, the chickens then reap the benefits by consuming the nutrient-rich grasses. Our rotational grazing system adds more organic matter to the soil and leaves healthier grassland behind over time.
What kind of animal welfare standards do you uphold?
One of our many certifications is the Certified Humane certification. We’re proud to offer our birds a superior lifestyle that is free from stress.
Do your birds receive any antibiotics or hormones?
Our birds are never raised with antibiotics or hormones.
Is your chicken gluten free?
Yes, our chicken is gluten free.
Do you feed your chickens corn or soy?
We feed USDA Certified Organic and Non-GMO Project Verified corn and soy as part of a much more diverse feedstock to our chickens to ensure their baseline nutritional needs are met. In addition to their feed, our chickens supplement their diets with native pasture grasses, bugs, and grit. We prioritize their supplemental diets by moving the birds to fresh pasture every day. Our farm and feed ingredients are never sprayed with harmful pesticides, herbicides, or desiccants like that of their conventional, "natural," and strictly "Non-GMO" counterparts.
How do we know the birds are living happy lives?
We’re proud to hold the most certifications in the industry: USDA Organic, Real Organic Project, Regenerative Organic Certified, Non-GMO Project Verified, GoTexan, and Certified Humane. These certifications require strenuous adherence to guidelines and standards that our farm team works 365 days a year to meet!
