Omega-3 Eggs at Cluckingham Palace. Bum-Nuts of Goodness!

Getting Back to Basic……turning our Bum-Nuts into something even healthier! We are now selling our free range, organic Omega-3 eggs. If you are nearby and wish to receive them, yell out. In a health food store you would pay up to $7.00 per dozen…to our friends $3.50 (this assists with the cost of feed etc).

To provide you with further information as to why we have decided to produce Omega-3 eggs, here goes.


Omega-3 fatty acids are essential nutrients that our body cannot produce. These acids are important and are required by our bodies at all stages of our lives. 


There are 3 main types of Omega-3- ALA, EPA, and DHA.


The Omega-3s are commonly found in foods such as canola oil, linseed and walnuts. Salmon and tuna are an excellent sources of Omega-3. For those who are allergic to fish, like me, need to find another alternative.

So why is it good for you?

Omega-3;

• is a major building block of the cells in the brain and retina so it is crucial for brain growth and visual development. 
• is important for the signalling process in the brain and nervous system. 
• form hormone-like substances which help reduce inflammation, increase flexibility of blood vessels and help blood flow (assisting to prevent brain clots).
• help reduce risk of heart attack. 
• aides arthritic conditions..  

How much do you need?

To prevent a deficiency of Omega-3 the recommended daily intake should be around 90mg for women and 160mg for men. If you wish to be proactive in creating a diet that is assisting in lowering chronic disease risk a much higher amount is recommended: •  For women 430mg per day  •  For men 610mg per day.

How do we get Omega-3 into the eggs?

The girls at Cluckingham Palace are living in a stress-free environment. Many of whom will run up for a cuddle the minute we make ourselves available. They are fed, and enjoy, a balanced diet of natural grains, walnuts, flax seed and fresh scraps from a fruit and vegetable produce market. Combining all of this with natural worming procedures – our girls are chemical free and loving life while they produce Bum-Nuts of Goodness!
