๐Ÿฅš Did you know that eggs have seasonality, too? Keep reading to find out more!

Did you know that eggs have seasonality, too? We often forget there is a natural rhythm for eggs, just like everything else in nature. On average, hens need 14-16 hours of daylight for peak egg production. With the increase of daylight hours, comes egg season! ๐Ÿณ

Contrary to popular belief, the color of an egg shell or its yolk is actually more dependent on the henโ€™s breed, and its diet, rather than the overall nutritional difference. This is especially true for pasture-raised hens as their diets change with the seasons. โ˜€๏ธ
