Pasture Raised Chickens & Ducks

Pasture Raised Chickens & Ducks

With acres of pasture to roam from dawn till dusk, the chickens and ducks at Walker Ranch get to frolic and forage to their heart’s content. They dine on a natural buffet of grass, grubs, seeds, and weeds every day. We provide supplemental feed for those bad weather days when they would rather stay inside.

The pasture raised poultry at Walker Ranch are never given any hormones or antibiotics.

Our most popular product is our farm fresh eggs. Our chickens lay white, brown, cream, blue, and green eggs, all with nice rich yolks. They are packaged each evening here at the ranch and distributed directly to our customers, often within a few days of being laid.

Happy hens lay health eggs.
