We came to buy 2 live hens. Inside so small, people had to stand in line all the way to the outside line. There was a petting zoo outside and a small outside market selling greens and fruits. The chicken were inside the coop and not opened for punlic to see- that was following state regulations. We paid inside the store and the lady staff said just wait outside with the receipt. We waited outside with noone in sight. So we asked two kids that worked at the outside market. One of them replied just stand and wait, I don't know how long it will be. When we bought the live chicken, we supposed to check the chicken first since it was final. But the guy that brought our chicken, a young guy, didnt speak English, brought us the two chickens inside a box, and one chicken flew out. He was manhandling to catch him, so we didnt even bother asking to see the other chicken and hoped that the other chicken was not missing any body part. He took the receipt and he didnt give us 25 lbs chicken feed that we already paid for. So we had to wait again for another guy, who equally didnt speak English, to show up. We asked one of the guest to interpret it, and he gave us the chicken feed.
Great place to purchase healthy kelp fed eggs. I purchase from here weekly. Their egg yolks are much darker and healthier than most store bought eggs.
This is my wonderful life. There is something special about driving and discovering ranch with fresh eggs, fruits, vegetables and meats, truly farm to table. The staff was friendly and genuine making the first farm experience more meaningful I picked up fresh eggs for my pies, and chicken giblets for my southern corn bread dressing. Right now my heart is fill with gratitude. I can't wait to prepare my holiday meal with such wholesome ingredients. If you're in the area and wants fresh food, check it out and tell them Team Smiley sent you
First time a Mausts, and boy the hunt for eggs is crazy. Not sure if it's always crowded here (but there were lines accross the street at their competitors also). The lot is nice because they have a petting zoo for the kiddos, and there is plenty of dirt parking. The prices are comparable, but if you feel they are a bit high, I would also consider how fresh they are here. Today I got a 30 pack for $15. Not too bad with the current grocery prices. The staff was nice too. Highly recommend this place for fresh eggs.
It's not their fault bird flu is a real possibility. People were pretty nice while standing in line, in the rain. There were a few that just didn't think the brown and green egg limits applied to them. Quite a few people were pushing themselves in the door when it says to keep it to 5 customers at a time. They see the emptying table inside and panic. Chill out! They restock the table with white eggs constantly. Maybe they don't want to put twice as many eggs out because pushy people will knock the table over and smash the eggs??!! So, 1 flat of jumbo brown eggs (20ct @ $16.25), 3 flats of Jumbo white eggs ($24.75ea, 30ct and no limit on white eggs), plus 1 bag of gizzards ($8) was $98. I know we'll all look back on this in a year or two and laugh that we were paying 3-4x the cost for eggs. BTW, the car line to get into Billy's Egg Farm across and down the street was at least 15 cars long. No car line at Maust's.
Have been coming here for years, this place is still the best for getting farm fresh eggs! The service is always great and the staff are so friendly, even when the line is crazy long. Prices are really good, if not better, than store bought eggs, remember that you're getting a way better end product (the yolks are completely different in color and texture). 5 stars for sure!
Absolutely love this place. The Ranch Egg Store in Chino is everything you wish grocery shopping still felt like. The customer service is genuinely warm and welcoming, the produce is fresh, and the eggs are on a whole different level. They even have a nice little area where you can pet the animals, which makes it a great stop for families or anyone who just appreciates a wholesome, farm-style experience. And let's be real for a second--if you want washed, bland, basic eggs that taste like nothing... go to a grocery store. But if you want the best tasting eggs you've ever had, straight from the chicken, rich, flavorful, and actually nourishing, this is the place. Once you try these eggs, there's no going back. Highly recommend. This spot is a gem.
Yay! Came back because I was in the area. I couldn't believe the line was long. I was told it's because of the egg shortage. What is it with people being super greedy and fighting for eggs and taking crates and crates?? Some People act like animals, I swear. Anyway, I got a carton of the green eggs since I was there but I really went for the fresh chicken. I got legs, breast and thighs. I'm going to make fried chicken. I also got chicken backs and "spare parts" to make a great stock. Oh, also got livers to make a delicious pâté. Thank you, Maust's! Always fun to visit.
FIRST visit: Uhhh ...fun! My first egg farm! * FEATURING: === An adorable llama and its goat friends out front === Egg "house" where all kinds of fresh eggs are sold (follow the signs) === They do sell live chicken here as well === Beware the smell if there's a wait (my usual overly acute nose was dying...) - they usually space out entries inside the shop to a few at a time * FRIENDLY service: Yes * FRESH air seating outside? N/A * FAIR pricing: Yes! * FEE processing: None. Accepts credit cards * FREE parking: Yes, gravel lot in front * FYI: Fun, my first egg farm (and there's a few in CH!) If I can help it, I always prefer buying eggs from local small actual free-range farms vs. giant over-populated ones that mass produce for grocery stores... FOUR & 1/2 stars **** '
My neighbor recommended this place to buy farm fresh eggs, and it is literally a farm! Besides the hens that lay all those delicious eggs, there are goats, sheep and llamas you can pet and feed. There was a long line of people today waiting to buy eggs because of this recent bird flu plandemic. They also sell processed chickens, hens and ducks too! I will probably become a regular here!

I usually get my eggs from the The Ecology Center in San Juan Capistrano or a local spot in Fountain Valley. Unfortunately, you can't always get eggs because people swoop in and grab them fast, and the prices are pretty high. As much as I love The Ecology Center, eggs there are about $15 for 12. At this farm, you can get 30 eggs that are fed sea kelp and high-quality ingredients for $17.50, which is honestly a bargain. Yes, it's a bit out of the way, but if you're in the area, I highly recommend stopping here. They also have homemade jams and honey. read more
I've been searching for a local chicken farmer for YEARS and am so thrilled to have found Maust Family Farm - not only are their eggs delectable but their home grown chickens have been some of the tastiest birds I've had since my childhood in rural Texas! On my first visit I bought a whole hen to roast, some bone-in breasts for soup, some boneless breasts, and some thighs. They also offer honeys, jams, and various peanut butters from other local kitchens and I couldn't resist giving them a try since they had minimal ingredients, no preservatives, AND no added sugars! I also just had to try their green eggs. Everything has been flawless and of excellent quality. Their green eggs have the most vibrant yolks of any eggs I've tried at other local farms or when compared to the "organic cage free" eggs at Ralphs. They're larger too and the flavor is so rich - I absolutely loved them and they will be my go-to egg from now on. Their egg prices are impressive given the quality - I found them to even be a bit cheaper than the organic cage free eggs I typically get at Ralphs so it's a win-win! For the chicken, so far I've roasted the whole hen and threw the bone-in breasts in the pan to roast as well (instead of using them in a soup like I originally intended lol) - O.M.G. the flavors and textures were just incredible! I was immediately taken back to my childhood eating fresh cleaned hens from my grandparents' back yard. The flavor is much more intense imo and the texture is palpable, tender, and noticeably authentic. If you've never had birds fresh off the farm like this you should try it! You'll never be able to trust the grocery store meats again lol. The hens are smaller than what you'll see in the grocery stores and that's bc these are ACTUAL REAL chickens. I have no idea what they're feeding us at the national chains anymore and it drives me crazy - the food situation in America is so tragic and I feel so lucky to have finally found an actual farm like Mausts! Just please keep in mind - if you are a stranger to fresh butchered chickens, you need to be prepared to see chicken heads on the whole hens and deal with occasional bits of feathers to pull out in places etc - again, that's bc these are authentic, real chickens lol. And also - all their animals seemed very well cared for with plenty of space and fresh air and freedom to roam while being kept safe. The price for their chicken is a bit higher than the grocery chains - but it's a price I'll happily pay for actual meat that isn't pumped full of god-knows-what. Maust farms don't use any antibiotics on their birds or any preservatives in their meats and they don't add all that water to pump up the meat weights etc. The lady at the register was so nice to me - so patient in answering my questions and helping me get all the meat cuts I was hoping for. Their birds are cleaned and packaged daily by a USDA approved butchery and sold in giant coolers at the ranch. Everything is regulated and their ranch store was spotlessly clean - I was impressed. They also offer whole roosters for roasting, various hen parts, gizzards, and even feet! And as far as eggs go, they all the standard egg sizes, green, brown, white - and they even have quail eggs and duck eggs! They have a very large ranch complex with tons of unpaved parking in great condition. They have a collab with Ian's Farm selling excellent veggies on site and they even have their very own petting zoo full of goats and other cute creatures lol. I had such a wonderful experience here and will definitely be getting all my chicken and eggs from Maust's Farm going forward! Highly recommend! read more

Visited Maust's California Poultry for the first time this weekend. We came on a Saturday around 9:30am and there was a small line with about 5 parties ahead of us to get inside the store. Store itself is quite tiny with a refrigerator space filled with small cartons or large tray of eggs - prices vary depending on what the chicken's eat. There was also a cooler of whole chickens for about ~$17 each and a shelf towards the back with what looked like jam and honey. Purchased a "harvest" tray of eggs from different breeds of hen. It was a bit pricey - 30 eggs for $16 but we knew we were paying for the variety. I will say the yolks were bright orange and very creamy in texture when we cooked it up. Outside the farm is a stand selling assorted fruits and veggies from another farm. There is also a gated area of animals which was pretty neat. read more

I come here every 3 weeks to get eggs by the carton. The prices are competitive with the other stores around. The lady's are super helpful and happy to help. They have live chickens and chickens all ready clean and prepared to cook. There is an organic vegetable stand outside. Their prices are in the high side. read more

First time here wanted a few more hens. Got tired of the Craigslist flakes. Found these guys thru Facebook. Jan 11/25. Birds look healthy and just a few weeks from starting to lay. I got production reds. They have other breeds as well as old hens that are much cheaper. Very busy place about 50 people in line and all transactions go thru the little office. You pay for your birds they give you a receipt and you give to a guy outside. Wasn't able to see birds before purchasing up close. Egg prices were great I should have bought 100 pack and sold at home for a profit. read more
I love family farms. This place has the freshest eggs from their 3 farms. Almost bought a chicken here, but held myself back from getting another one. It's family owned so there can be a wait when looking at live poultry, as they get so busy. Everyone is so nice though. There are some cute farm animals in their corral to say hello to. read more

There are a few things to ask when purchasing eggs directly from a farm. The ideal egg comes comes from Pasture raise chickens. What do they feed their chickens? Grain, soy, kelp, veggies Are they cage free? Yes they are. They do not have access to pasture but they do consume leafy goodness. How much? I don't know I forgot to ask. Are we purchasing eggs that were less than a week of harvest? Yes. According to the staff the eggs were harvested anywhere from 3 to 7 days before your purchase. This is as fresh as they come! Can't get the answer to this question from a grocery store. You can see the chickens & roosters. They have other animals your children can feed and pet. They sell - fresh produce/fruits -chickens (young & old) and roosters (live & fresh) -beef -chicken manure -honey -jam -olives We purchased 180 eggs, xl, brown for $75 We did the water test to all 180 eggs to make sure they were good since some reviews were saying the eggs were bad. Only 15 out of 180 stood up but none of them floated to the top. read more

I love Maust Egg Farm! They have so many Wonderful things here! I buy flats of eggs that are so fresh & delicious! I also buy chicken feet to make some Delicious & Healthy bone broth, 3lbs of Orange Blossom Honey! They have a lot more in store. Outside there is a farmers market store with the Best fruits & vegetables! The radishes are as big as large carrots. The carrots a pretty large. Everything is so fresh & delicious! Everyone is so kind and helpful! Today I called to be sure they had chicken feet since I was driving from O.C. I had no idea they were so busy with a long line way out the door, but they lady I spoke to was so Kind & Sweet that she got me help and they held 2 bags of chicken feet for me. Once I arrived I realized how busy they were but still so Kind! read more

This is a great place to get all kinds of fresh eggs and chickens, and so close to my house! However, needs to get here early to have the best picks or before items run out. There's a variety of farm animals in the front for a genuine farm experience, as well as a stand for vegetables. read more

Would you sell frozen day old chick feeders by any chance ? Thank you
As of June 13 is there a long line?
No long lines, but you are always welcome to call first to find out like I always do.
Would you take a rooster in?
Unfortunately we are not able to bring in any outside birds into a ranch. It is against federal biosecurity measures
