Description
The “Legendary” Blue Egg
Add a touch of the extraordinary to your morning ritual. Our Crested Cream Legbar hens produce stunning, pastel sky-blue eggs that are as beautiful on the outside as they are nutrient-dense on the inside.
This rare British heritage breed—famously developed at Cambridge University—is known for its active, foraging nature. At Nomad Prairie Farms, our “Nomads” roam free on the Alberta prairie, resulting in a deep, sun-kissed orange yolk and a flavor profile that conventional eggs simply cannot match.
-
Appearance: Distinctive pastel blue to light turquoise shells.
-
Flavor: Rich, creamy, and robust thanks to a diverse prairie diet of grasses and clover.
-
Heritage: 100% Heirloom genetics from the original British lineage.
The blue pigment (biliverdin) is only on the shell, but the deep orange yolk is the true indicator of the ‘Nomad’ lifestyle—packed with more Beta-Carotene and Vitamin E than store-bought alternatives.
Estimated Nutritional Value
