Why Christopher Eggs?
The Feed for Christopher Chickens
The formula for Christopher Eggs was designed by Belovo, a Belgian egg
processing company with expertise in developing health oriented food
ingredients, oils and egg based powders.
In developing Christopher Eggs, Belovo researched nutrition and the human
and animal diet, both historic and contemporary. The natural diet of the
ancestors of our modern chicken was far more varied, including an extended
range of seeds, pulses and green vegetation. This diet yielded eggs with a
better nutrient content and a better balance of essential fatty acids.
Currently, many other eggs are from chickens fed primarily wheat and soya.
This results in eggs that are much lower in Omega-3 than Omega-6 fatty
acids, and does nothing to adjust the shortage of Omega-3 that is widespread
in Western diets.
