Eggs
We think our girls lay the best eggs in the valley but the we may be a bit partial! Our hens eat a high protien diet. No antibiotics or hormones for these girls. We have a wide range of ages and breeds here at Oxbow Farms. Barred Rock, Wyandotes, RI Reds, just to name a few. Most of our eggs are brown but some are a light green in color. Due to the ages not all eggs will be the same size heck some of the eggs are so big they barely fit in the egg carton! Our eggs sell for $5 per dozen. Currently we deliver eggs on Thursday to our residential customers in Grand Junction and Orchard Mesa and Clifton areas. .
Some of the benefits of Farm Fresh Eggs over store bought eggs include:
Less Cholesterol
Less Saturated Fat
Increase Vitamin A, E and D
Higher Omega-3 Fatty Acids
Higher Beta Carotene
Egg Size Are Larger
Eggs Have More Flavor
Color of the Yoke is Brighter and Not Pale in Color
Animals in a Farm Environment are Treated Better then Factory Farms
Farm Eggs are Fresher then Store Bought Eggs
Pictured below is a few of our girls.
Poultry
Starting in 2020 Oxbow Farm will be offering meat chickens and turkeys. Our birds will be pasture raised and not given antibiotics or hormones. These birds will be grown naturally and be able to free range eat bugs and do everything a bird should. We feel that pasture raised meat is better for the environment and makes a for a tastier end product. Contact Us today to be put on the preorder list for both turkey and chicken. Don't miss out on these flavorful birds raised naturally!
Chicken
Our pasture raised chicken will be available from June through November. Birds are done in batches of 20 birds and are available about 12-14 weeks. We strongly urge clients to get their name on the waiting list for birds. Birds are sold first come first serve. Once all the birds are sold in a batch that is it until the next batch is ready.
Turkey
Turkeys are raised a little differently than chickens. Turkeys are raised in a set number each year and not done in batches like chickens. Turkeys are processed in early November so they will be ready for the holiday season. Given the limited number of raised turkeys preorders and waiting list clients will get priority and any left over birds will be available first come first serve.
Quail
Quail are raised and during the spring and summer months. We sell both birds and eggs. The quail we raise are Coturnix are one of the classifications of Japanese Quail. Our Quail range in colors and feather styles. For more information on our quail feel free to reach out!
Chicks are available for most of the year for chicken. Chicks are not shipped at the time and it is pick up or meet up only. Most of the chicks we have available are blue and brown egg layers. To purchase or order chicks please contact us.
