Pasture-Raised Poultry & More
Choosing pastured poultry is a powerful decision for both your health and the health of the land. And they taste better, too! Birds raised on pasture have access to natural forage, resulting in eggs and meat richer in essential nutrients like omega-3 fatty acids, vitamins, and antioxidants compared to conventionally raised poultry. This natural diet supports your well-being by providing cleaner, more wholesome food free from antibiotics and hormones. Additionally, raising poultry on pasture promotes healthy soil ecosystems; the birds' natural foraging helps control pests, aerates the soil with their scratching, and their manure acts as a natural fertilizer, enhancing soil fertility and biodiversity. By supporting pastured poultry, you contribute to sustainable farming practices that nourish both people and the environment.

Eggs
Behold a carton brimming with nature’s palette — eggs from our cherished Marans, Ameraucanas, Olive Eggers, Orpingtons, Leghorns, Legbars, and Wyandottes, each shell a delicate masterpiece painted by the hand of vibrant life. Imagine deep, lustrous chocolate browns from the Marans, deep pistachio greens from Olive Eggers, and gentle blue and lavender hues gifted by the Ameraucanas and Cream Legbars. The Orpingtons and Wyandottes lend their warm cream tones and soft speckled patterns, weaving a tapestry of color that rivals the most exquisite rainbow.
This isn’t just an assortment of eggs; it’s the result of painstaking care, a devotion to quality that goes far beyond the norm. Our hens roam free, feasting on a bounty of grasses, insects, herbs, and grains — their diet richer and more varied than typical flocks. Each egg is collected gently, handled with respect, and packaged thoughtfully to preserve its fragile beauty and freshness. These eggs command a higher price, reflecting the love and effort poured into breeding and nurturing our vibrant flock.
At Flat Rock Creek Ranch, our passion for birds is matched only by our desire to share their colorful gifts with those who appreciate true quality. Our mixed flock thrives under our care, producing eggs in a kaleidoscope of shades.
Local pickup or delivery in the Marble Falls area, to share in this vibrant bounty, text Katie Jo at (906) 281-2177 or email us today.
Table Birds
Known as meat birds, these are the centerpiece of your table. Raised naturally on our hill country landscape, they deliver richer, more robust flavors and superior nutrient density compared to typical store-bought chicken. These birds forage on grasses and actively hunt grasshoppers—just as chickens were meant to do—resulting in a taste that truly stands apart. We carefully raise Cornish Cross, Red Rangers, and dual-purpose heritage breeds, each selected to meet the unique needs of homesteaders and home cooks alike. Every breed offers exceptional taste and outstanding nutrition. Plus, pasture-raised birds produce the most flavorful, gelatin-rich stock you'll ever enjoy, elevating your meals to a whole new level.
