🛍 Product Information :
The eggs generally supplied for sale are eggs produced by laying hens on laying hen farms (whether ordinary eggs or free-range eggs). Laying hens are chickens specially used for laying eggs and have not been fertilized. Only chickens from breeder farms undergo fertilization procedures, and the eggs they lay are incubated and will not be sold on the market.
The physiological mechanism of egg production in chickens is affected by sunlight and nutrition, not by mating. Therefore, if there is no mating, eggs will still be laid, as long as the hen's sexual organs mature. Generally, commercially available eggs are unfertilized and infertile eggs. If there are eggs that have been fertilized by mating with roosters, they are hatching eggs used to produce chicks.
The yolk combines with sperm in the infundibulum of the fallopian tube to form a fertilized egg. The fertilized egg continues to descend and is wrapped in protein in the enlarged part of the fallopian tube, forming egg white. Then the eggshell membrane is formed and then enters the uterus. Finally, calcium is deposited on the eggshell membrane to form the eggshell and the thin cuticle protective film outside the eggshell. The number of sperm that a rooster can ejaculate at one time is generally between 1.5 and 8 billion.
一般的に販売されている卵は、採卵鶏場で採卵された鶏が産んだ卵（普通卵、平飼い卵）で、採卵専用の鶏で無精卵です。ブリーダー農場からの鶏のみが受精手続きを受け、産んだ卵は孵化して市場には販売されません。
鶏の産卵の生理学的メカニズムは、交尾ではなく日光と栄養の影響を受けるため、交配がなくても、鶏の生殖器官が成熟している限り、卵は産まれます。一般に市販されている卵は無精卵であり、雄鶏と交配して有精卵となったものは、ヒナを産むために孵化した卵である。
卵黄は卵管漏斗で精子と結合して受精卵を形成します。 受精卵は下降を続け、卵管の広がった部分でタンパク質に包まれて卵白を形成します。 そして卵殻膜が形成され子宮内に入り、最後に卵殻膜上にカルシウムが沈着して卵殻とその外側に薄いクチクラ保護膜が形成されます。 雄鶏が一度に射精できる精子の数は、一般的に15億～80億個です。
Nutritional value:
An egg contains about 6-8 grams of high-quality protein, amino acids, a small amount of cholesterol, vitamin E and D and other micronutrients. In terms of nutrient absorption and digestibility: 100% for boiled eggs; 97% for scrambled eggs, 98% for fried poached eggs, and 30% to 50% for raw food (with bacteria, easy to diarrhea).
In terms of vitamin retention rate:
① The method of lower heating temperature: boiled eggs, the nutrition is fully retained; steamed eggs, riboflavin, lutein and other water-soluble vitamins lose less;
② the method of high heating temperature: fried poached eggs Vitamins A, D, E, K and other fat-soluble vitamins and water-soluble vitamins are all lost. As far as the heart is good: boiled eggs, the cooking temperature is not high, and the cholesterol in the yolk is not exposed to oxygen, so it is the most beneficial way of eating for the heart. However, for children, steamed custard and egg drop soup are the most suitable, because these two methods can loosen the protein, which is easily digested and absorbed by children.
🔅 Special Notes:
Remember not to wash it after you buy it home to prevent bacteria from infiltrating into the eggs due to moisture. Place the tip down to get the most nutrition when you eat it fresh. It is recommended to use our recommended environmentally friendly vegetable and fruit cleaner to soak for 3 to 5 minutes to eliminate bacteria on the surface of eggs.
Farm is a family-owned farm, sometimes our eggs may be too fresh and have not been put in the refrigerator at all. Customers have feedback to us that even after soaking in cold water after cooking, the shells is still difficult to peel. Super fresh eggs are difficult to peel because the protein has a more acidic pH, which causes it to adhere more tightly to the shell membrane. There are two solutions here - use old eggs or add a little baking soda to the cooking water to increase the pH. Please also try to be patient by immersing in ice water.
