Our chickens, of different breeds, walk freely through our parks, chopping fruit, vegetables, as well as their food. This outdoor lifestyle, combined with a balanced diet, allows us to offer eggs of the highest quality.
In addition to what they graze and eat in the park (grass, insects, fruits, plants...), our hens eat a mixture of 100% natural cereal. It is a "feed" format that brings together barley, corn and wheat. And did you know? We give them everything in flour format to prevent them from making trianza, so they eat everything and they love it by providing them with all the energy necessary to produce the wonderful eggs of Can Costeta that endorse us for their taste of real egg.
