Starting out small with only 150 chickens in Kojonup, the last 20 years we have grown and expanded in more ways than one.
Five children, a new farm in Anketell (south of Perth) and now we have far too many chickens to count.

He joined the payroll from about 8 when he graduated from 'good little helper' to a helpful helper. His sisters Asha and Lucy were not far behind. Tess and Barrie round up the family of 7 as the current ‘good little helpers’.
Growing eggs since 2005

Brown Eggs vs White Eggs
We are excited to be the first in WA to produce white eggs. These pearly white eggs come from our new chicks on the farm. They are a smaller chick in size, eat less, are environmentally friendly and as a bonus, we are bringing back the art of 'egg decorating'.
The big question is... do they taste the same? well the answer is YES!
There is no difference nutritionally or taste between brown and white eggs? The simple fact is that brown eggs are laid by brown chickens and white eggs are laid by white chickens, other than their appearance there is no difference. We still have brown hens, these are just an addition to our great tasting Mason's eggs. The
