FAQs

Where can I buy Nellie's Free Range Eggs?

We're proud to say that our eggs are sold in grocery stores, supermarkets, health food stores, and other locations nationwide. Check out the store locator page to find a market near you!

I can't find your eggs in my favorite store. What do I do?

Great question! We find that store managers are eager to carry products that their customers request, so we suggest letting your store manager know that you'd like to see our eggs at your store. You can also drop us a line at familyfarmteam@peteandgerrys.com and we’re happy to see what we can do to help.

Do you give your hens hormones?

We do not give our Nellie's hens hormones. In fact, it is illegal for anyone raising poultry to administer hormones.

Do you give your hens antibiotics?

Nellie's Free Range Farms are committed to Animal Welfare and believe in raising our hens in compliance withHumane Farm Animal Care (HFAC) Certification Standards(Certified Humane).  Our farms undergo 3rd party inspection to ensure requirements such as feed, veterinary care, housing, and outdoor access meet the Certified Humane criteria.  This means we do not give our hens antibiotics in their feed or water as a mass preventive measure and instead focus on raising our hens in a clean and healthy environment.

What does Free-Range mean?

Each of our partner farms follows the Certified Humane Free-Range standards, which means that during most times of the day and year, our hens are free to roam outside as they please with a minimum of 2 square feet per hen of pasture. It is very rare for the entire flock to choose to be outside at any one time during the day - many of them prefer shade, water, feed, or social opportunities inside the barn - so the girls that feel like venturing out usually have a vast expanse of a field all to themselves to explore.

What is the difference between Free-Range and Cage-Free?

Check out Our Farms for more differences and details of our farm standards. Despite the name, Cage-Free is still caged – gigantic floor-to-ceiling metal enclosures full of layers, catwalks, and doors – with hens that do not get to see the sun. Free Range hens get to forage and roam freely outside as they please, in pastures that keep them happy and healthy. At Nellie’s Free Range, we care deeply about hen welfare and humane farming practices, believing that every hen should get to see the sun!

How much protein is in an egg?

Each large egg contains around 6 grams of protein; Jumbo eggs are about 8 grams of protein. Eggs are considered a complete protein, meaning they contain each of the nine amino acids.
