Fryar's Kangaroo Island Free Range Eggs
Kangaroo Island is well known for its clean, healthy environment, Tom & Fiona Fryar's Free Range Poultry Farm covers 3,000 acres & is situated near Kingscote on Kangaroo Island. They run 35,000 hens on the farm, producing approx 10,000 doz eggs per week & supplying in excess of 100 outlets across Kangaroo Island, Adelaide, Melbourne & Sydney. Mobile poultry sheds are used on Fryar's free range farm, each shed provides 1,000 hens with shelter, nesting boxes & timber rails for roosting. The sheds are designed to allow the birds access in & out as they please, laying hens on the farm are never locked in sheds. The sheds are moved across the paddock which gives the hens' access to fresh pasture. The hens are also fed a mixture of grains which are grown, crushed & mixed on the farm. Beak trimming is definitely not allowed on Fryar's free range farm, all hens are full beaked which enables them to peck & scratch at seeds, insects, grubs etc as nature intended.
