Today, the [GoodEgg product line](https://grow.ifa.coop/co-op-feature/goodegg-stuff-cleaning-fresh-eggs) grows on the same philosophy as it did at day one: there is nothing better than fresh eggs. Like the Van Leuvens, experienced and novice chicken owners continue to bask in the advantages of backyard chickens and the delicious eggs. Discover the benefits of backyard eggs and a few fluffy, fresh, and delicious reasons to start raising backyard chickens. ### Better Than Store Bought: Superior Freshness An obvious benefit to raising your backyard chickens is, of course, fresh eggs. When you collect eggs from your backyard, you can rest assured that they are as fresh as possible. This freshness translates into a more vibrant yolk color and a richer, creamier taste that enhances any recipe. ![A green, brown, and tan egg sit in a carton.](https://grow.ifa.coop/hs-fs/hubfs/IFA_Blog_Sausage%20%26%20Egg%20Frittata4.png?width=1560&height=816&name=IFA_Blog_Sausage%20%26%20Egg%20Frittata4.png) ### Backyard is Better: Enhanced Nutritional Value Backyard eggs are often more nutritious. As IFA’s animal nutrition experts attest, backyard chicken nutrition affects the egg quality and flavor. Chickens raised at home and fed a quality poultry feed often produce eggs with higher levels of vitamins and minerals, including Vitamin D, Vitamin E, and Omega-3 fatty acids. [![CTA](https://hubspot-no-cache-na2-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/cta/default/9486267/interactive-184265251462.png)](https://grow.ifa.coop/hs/cta/wi/redirect?encryptedPayload=AVxigLIs7Cvaqmqc%2F5FOLXbm8mUQhBHk5ENIgZExmJmfQR5XgWS6nmLq0lVEW0HSrTvvtnozz%2FQRlmlV6AetIkEJ1QpaSytflKynvkVBEei5rhIkl0xO362RETKPV0R%2FeGUepr6MKY8emDYUYjouoqmZdZw7YrDlJd4Vs5yIeogkn1Btb3Op%2F2mAH2c6uXbx93KaK%2BaR%2FAfrH0dxKIwt966XJBYOAwQ8N8KmV1HGpA%3D%3D&webInteractiveContentId=184265251462&portalId=9486267) ### Better for Your Family: Increased Self-Sufficiency Raising chickens for eggs is a great way to promote greater self-sufficiency for you and your family. Fresh eggs are a staple in many kitchens – from breakfast to baking. Owning chickens means a steady supply of fresh eggs to make all your favorite dishes. ![A child's hand picks up eggs laid by backyard chickens.](https://grow.ifa.coop/hs-fs/hubfs/IFA_Blog_Sausage%20%26%20Egg%20Frittata5.png?width=1560&height=816&name=IFA_Blog_Sausage%20%26%20Egg%20Frittata5.png) ### Better for the Pocket Book: Cost-Effective and Economical While there is an initial investment in setting up a backyard coop and purchasing chickens, the long-term savings is significant. Backyard eggs are more cost-effective than store-bought options. The Van Leuvens and many other chicken owners understand that raising backyard chickens offers various benefits that extend beyond the simple joy of collecting fresh eggs each morning. The unparalleled freshness enhances their flavor, quality and nutrition, providing a richer source of essential vitamins and minerals. Consider raising your own backyard chickens for your own delicious eggs.
