Local chickens, whether they be on someone’s market stall at the DFM, or from just down the street, are almost by definition fresher when they reach your pan and plate. And that, in and of itself, should be enough to get …you thinking about purchasing them.

On top of that, there’s not much real price differential…what you’ll notice is that the REALLY cheap eggs are either 1) really old; 2) from really far from here; or, 3) generally, really small.

I’d rather have fresh eggs–and the pastel colors of the shells are pretty cool, too!
