Have y’all seen this photo floating around social media? Since a large part of my followers trust me as their local chicken farmer, I’d like to expand on this! I realize not many of you have the opportunity to be apart of chicken processing 🙂🐓🍗 and learning where your food comes from!

As you can see.. there’s a pretty big difference between how your farm-fresh chicken is handled and how chicken is processed on an industrial scale!! 🫣

At large poultry processing facilities, chickens are treated with and submerged in *approved* antimicrobial rinses, submerging or sprays—including chlorine-based solutions (bleach/bleach water baths) or other antimicrobial chemicals—to reduce bacteria during “high-volume processing”. As in, thousands and thousands and thousands of birds everywhere all the time being processed on shared equipment by many people.

And while these treatments are regulated and *considered safe* when used properly, we choose a different approach for our Ivy Acres poultry! 🤗🫶🏼

❤️Our chicken isn’t sitting in a communal chemical wash.
❤️ We raise our birds on pasture.
❤️ We focus on clean handling and small-batch processing.
❤️ We rely on sanitation, temperature control, and careful handling with fewer hands and birds to be proactive instead of “making up for cutting corners”

And as many of you have asked - we do not soak our chicken, we DRY AGE them for 24 hours before butchering 🙂

(Dry aging is the process of resting raw poultry in a cold, open-air environment to evaporate surface moisture, concentrate rich savory flavors, and tighten the skin for a crispier roast)

As always. Cook your chicken to 165°F for safety!

And thank you for choosing Ivy Acres for quality meat!! It’s because of you guys we can keep growing! 🍗🐓❤️ Raised right. Right here.

We believe a farm should leave the land better than we found it!! Through rotational grazing with our birds, pesticide free-healthy soil, free range and pasture-raised chickens & water fowl, we’re working to regenerate the land while producing wholesome (and stinking yummy!) food. 🌱🐔

Kinda like Grandma’s backyard farm chicken & eggs 😊❤️🫶🏼

🐔 FALSE! 😀

Okay hear me out before you come at me 🫣…
A dark orange yolk doesn’t automatically mean a better egg! Really…

Commercial hens can be kept indoors, fed low-quality diets, and still produce dark yolks simply by adding things like paprika, marigold extract, or other color-enhancing ingredients to their feed. 🤯 (sounds like cheating to me!)

BUT on the flip side, pasture-raised hens may naturally lay eggs with yolks that VARY in COLOR throughout the year depending on the season, what’s growing in the yard, and what types of bugs are abundant that time of year! 👍🏼👍🏼

Yolk color tells you what a chicken ate—not necessarily how she was raised or the quality of feed she is eating! (Kinda like painting a brown banana yellow, it’s not actually yellow. But we will pretend 🥲)

If you want to know the QUALITY of an egg, ask about the bird’s diet, living conditions, and access to pasture—not just the color of the yolk. 😃 No, really!

🥚 Color can be manipulated y’all!! Good farming practices can’t. 🌱🐔

This is all! Have a great day 😄
