Sauder’s Organic Eggs are produced by hens that receive a special diet and special treatment: they are fed rations having ingredients that were grown without pesticides, fungicides, herbicides, hormones, or commercial fertilizers from the day of their birth; they receive no drugs; and they are free to roam throughout their hen house, entering and leaving their nests at will.
