We throw out cracked corn for them and also provide Oyster Shell, Cherry rock and Kelp free choice. We also provide layer mash. This may not be organic but it is chemical and antibiotic free. This is on top of what they find free ranging such as bugs, worms, grasses and of course treats from the garden!. Their water comes from artesian springs, no chemicals there either. They are allowed to free range any day weather permitting. We use only home made compost in the organically managed gardens. Ellson's Acre is Just that an acre of farm fresh free range chickens, free ranged eggs and organically managed gardens. We have organically grown vegetables available from mid June till frost in October. Because of our size, our chicken, eggs and vegetables are sold on a person to person basis. We do not go to farmers markets. We are located just out side of Des Moines Iowa. We are thinking about starting a CSA(community supported agriculture). What is a CSA? Click Here What is in ours?

Click Here WE NO LONGER HAVE THE CHICKENS OR EGGS DUE TO HEALTH ISSUES, BUT WE ARE LEAVING THE HOW TO INFO UP AND HOPE IT STILL HELPS MANY.chicken Disclaimer: We are a State recognized not certified organic grower in our gardens, this does not apply to our chickens. We do our very best to make sure the flock is not exposed to any chemicals or hormones or antibiotics. (we eat these eggs and chickens to you know!) That's how this got started in the first place! Below are two pictures of how most commercial hens live their entire lives. These are pictures of where your store eggs come from. These birds spend their whole life like this.   Here are pictures of some of our girls! They free range about 14 hours on most nice days. Who do you want to lay your eggs?
