Why You SHOULDN'T Buy Free Range Eggs? Are You Kidding me!

True

It amount to what I said , my chickens would stay inside , but in day time they inspect all 9 acres of my homestead they come in coop to lay eggs and at dusk for the neight . Ad to fence them in now because new neighbour . Planning chicken tractor ...

true dat

The only reason chickens like tight spaces is because acts as a shelter from predators especially as they are vulnerable while laying eggs and sleeping. No different to any other bird really.

​@Skodaman2 If you read his letters he does say that he tried in legislator of his state and later in the federal government to get it abolished, but failed. Though when he was president Thomas Paine and others tried to get him to abolish it the South after the Louisiana Purchase and Jefferson said no. He feared an event akin to the Haitian Revolution would go down, and the loss of the sugar trade, too. Jefferson died a cuck and Paine a depressed drunkard. And we waged a war in the end that spilled more blood than any black rebellion would have. Paine > Jefferson

Thank you for agreeing light on the issue. I was just about to look up what is the technical meaning of the labels they slap on egg cartons here in the US

and this is why experience always counts more than theory!

What youhave.. Nunnery??

Mine too we have one named Sophia she sprints out of the poop runs up to the porch and cross underneath the barbecue to lay her eggs 😂 and then we got our fussy fuzzy Faverolles they will be so loud that if you don't let them out they'll keep your butt awake until you get up and let them out even though they're not the smartest they are pretty fun. I got a mixed Asian black with something cuz she's red but came with their Asian blacks Ruby fat girl but she's really Lowe on the picking order and that supposed me...

@@njrasmussen5515 make a place inside the poop(big enough, food variety,retire box-high)make them content foradayortwo. Sure you have fun now.....

AMEN!!!!!

Yeah I would rather eat eggs from a chemically sustained chicken than getting their protein from natural sources which is why I take antibiotics just incase I get more sick

What you mean is prisons, and I fully approve that idea.

Fellow NY farmer. Chickens elected to stay outside during the day, inside at night... by choice. Kinda says something, eh?

@@Andruth34 funny cause battery eggs are so shitty and small.

That's why I have a rooster... he is an asshole but... he protects his hens... and they listen... he's killed an owl.. a hawk or two even

Oh my gosh I saw that happen the other day! The exact same thing, it was so crazy to watch

Great story!!! I had a rooster mean as heck. I never saw it as a virtue until I read your post.

@@blackhawkmg3722 My first chicken when I was a kid was a neighbor's rooster that wondered into our yard. They had a lot and never realized he was missing but he wasnt really friendly and didn't let you get close. Later, some dogs attacked him and he looked like he was going to die. I took him inside and cleaned him up and cared for him. When he was fully healed, he became the sweetest friendliest bird. I could walk over and pick him up and hed squeeze through the dog door to go into our garage. Loved that rooster.

Ohh he sounds cool!! 😁

The sooner the better.

Holy shit I just checked it. I cant believe it. American cigarettes doesn't have those warnings. Holy moly.... The European union has voted that all cigarette brand should print with big letters the dangers of it. Maybe you guys should follow.

Tegrity Farms remembers.

I mean, like any animal complex enough to have personalities, I'm sure you get the occasional introverted chicken, but that's probably like cats that like the water, or rabbits that like to be picked up. It's a very small number of the whole.

How Does He Dare lol

Me either. My chickens would stay outside, even to their own detriment at times (weather, predators).

I love how he starts the videos w/ letting the chickens out lol.

Agreed. Our birds absolutely hate snow because it means their feet get cold and they have to stay inside more often during the winter.

It's not a question. This is naked propaganda. Deliberately misrepresenting reality.

Agreed

yup. weird how a lot of people in the comments seem to think this is "liberal fake news" or something, when it's actually big agri-business who obviously benefits from articles like this, and conservative politicians pander to them even more than liberal politicians do

UK was killing people's chickens. Physically going to homes where people had egg chickens or pet chickens and gassing the birds. :(

Your chickens do everything they do because they are biological machines driven by their instinct. They do not have the mental capacity to be happy or sad, that's just you anthropomorphizing them.

@@martintranslations9883 Maybe my chickens are more intelligent than yours. They certainly are happier given choice.

@@martintranslations9883 Even a chicken brain is much more complex than any machines and AI we have today. I don't think we have enough knowledge about neurology to definitely say that a chicken wouldn't have its own version of "happy" or "sad". What we can say is that free range chickens are almost always in much better health.

@@martintranslations9883 Humans are also driven by instinct. How many humans do you see resisting the instinct to reproduce, socialize, or eat sweet things? Being driven by instinct and having emotions are not mutually exclusive. In fact, emotions ARE instincts by themselves, designed to motivate animals to seek out beneficial situations.

​@@martintranslations9883 They're dumb for sure, but we have no idea if they're happy or not because they're not exactly great about filling out questionaires. If you hear a vet saying a wild animal doesn't like the outdoors you may not want take your animals to that vet. He's a idiot.

I'm sure there's a small, small minority of chickens that prefer to stay in the coup, but that's like cats that like water, or rabbits that enjoy being picked up. It happens but very rare.

Yeah, those "some chickens" are called broody hens. I wouldn't doubt they're including those so that they can say "Some chickens actually prefer to be indoors."

@@joshua.merrill when they use weasel words like "some"(which could mean 1 in 100,000,000) you know they are trying to deceive you. if they were honest they would tell you the percentage of chickens who prefer the indoors, which as someone who has observed chicken roaming free and being caged, i would venture guess is a tiny percentage.

Out of years of dealing with chickens, I only met one hen who genuinely didn't like leaving the coop/straying far from the coop. Then again, she only started being that way after she was chased by a loose dog.

i've noticed that as well. they get a better diet and a lot of regular exercise. have you looked at the fat of a free-range chicken? it's a very bright and full yellow. the fat of a supermarket chicken is transparent......

An also the shell is thicker as well. It take a big tap to crack the shell open. Cage eggs are so thin take if I tap to hard. The egg falls apart.

Agreed!

CBC has done a test on all kinds of egg and the conclusion reached is that nutritionally, free range eggs are not better than the conventional ones.

@@EliF-ge5bu i found a study from usa that says free-range eggs have more monounsaturated fats and polyunsaturated fats. and also more omega-3. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/21673178/ not only are they tastier, but they seem to be healthier as well....

And they do not like to be eaten either

@@spidertager precisely

@@Ali-pb6jb I buy from a friend that has hens and they are raised and fed right.

@@Ali-pb6jb I raise my own because of that. Free range here they are still in barns and dont go outside.

Traci Scheelk whatever desert dweller.

@@Ali-pb6jb You are talking about cage free, not free range. USDA requires any farmers that label products as free range to have unfettered access to the outdoors. Cage free, however can just mean they aren't jammed in a cage, and can be just kept in a barn forever. This is why you've seen some states force them to label these as "barn roam". www.fsis.usda.gov/wps/portal/fsis/topics/food-safety-education/get-answers/food-safety-fact-sheets/food-labeling/meat-and-poultry-labeling-terms/meat-and-poultry-labeling-terms/!ut/p/a1/jZFRT8IwEMc_zR673hyS4duyxMCUTUKUshfTuVvXuLVLWyT46R0aTCQg9J569_vn7v5HC8poofiHFNxJrXi7_xfjV1jAOJgkkOaT4B5m2csif0gSiJa3A7D-B8jCK_VnXgyX9OkVDW7MPJkLWvTcNUSqWlMm0BGu7BaNpazWuiKW1-h2pOZvjtgG0R0KLS-xlUpQ1iHfqyrS603rzO63RByazl4GVrT4Oy4EQ8yycDmaplkI-egYOOHnD3DesMER0ery-3jrWJVhNKxusEaDxt-YId0419s7DzxA5W_lu-yxktzXRnhwStRo6yg7ZmnfPbPPx3gK8qlbRTb-AuIQOWg!/#4 Now that doesn't mean that all farms follow the rules, but it is that way for any rules or regulations. At the very least, even being packed in a barn while being able to wander is still slightly better than stuffed in a cage. Progress will always continue, and eventually battery farms will be gone, and the next battle will be to move over to a pasture raised type situation. The main issue is price as well, I can buy a 3 dozen pack of normal battery farmed eggs for 2.70 (90 cents a dozen), while the cheapest actual verified free range eggs (here in my local area of the US) I can buy are 4.00 a dozen.

@@Ali-pb6jb I mean that is US law that if they are labelled free range they have to have access to the outdoors inherently (IE-be able to move freely from indoors to outdoors). The fact that some farms break said law/regulation/rule and aren't getting caught is largely irrelevant overall (to this specific conversation), like most rules/laws, most people follow them, some people don't. There are plenty of farms that label free range and sell to grocery stores that are actually completely following the laws and are totally fine. On top of that, I have never once seen a single egg carton, anywhere that was labelled as "pasture raised" to begin with (here in NY).

Bingo.

Where O Where did COMMON SENSE go !

When you’re bombarded with propaganda at every turn, it’s sometimes hard to know what the truth is. It’s sad, and it should not be legal to publicly make such false and absurd statements.

You ask them who said it and they reply the Daily Mail with a straight face.

Or just plain stupid

people who think this clowns are credible deserve to get rekt!

Exactly!

No doubt. Sadly, there is almost no such thing as true journalism. That industry has died and been replaced by propagandists.

Caged eggs are for caged humans

Probably the one on the egg case.

No doubt in my mind.

It can be stressful and anxiety inducing for prisoners to encounter freedom. Doesn't mean the transition isn't worth the destination.

We had a couple of ex battery hens and they loved being outside in the backyard.The down side to that was you could find eggs literally anywhere and not know how old they were,so we rarely ate any of their eggs. They decided when to get up in the morning and put themselves to bed at night. We had cats too and the chooks wouldn't take any crap from them,sent them packing if they got too close. The funny thing is they let a feral cat sleep in their coop at night which surprised us when we found out.

@@tallyhorizzla3330 so much for there instincts ! I mean allowing the cats in there coop and allowing them to forage there eggs. But anyway I prefer my backyard chickens !

Good man Bill Connolly

Before we domesticated chickens, they were called dinosaur 🙃

Chickens are almost equatorial in their original habitats.. they have adapted very well to our northern climates..some even reduced comb sizes and added feathers to their legs.

They lived in tropical forests I believe.

His surname is Adolf.

It was probably statements taking out of context. I've noticed with my chickens they like to be in one corner of the coop all perched together when they do go in for the night. So chickens may prefer confined areas when they can't see anything as they are blind in the dark.

@misa smith add the banks are fair and no one would jack the price on medicine just to make a bigger profit:-)

Looked into it a bit further, he says that they like to be in small groups under leaf cover and that battery cages are of course horrible. He states that they'd probably prefer a barn where they have shade and walking space over walking in a meadow. It's a bit more nuanced, I think letting the chickens decide whether they want to be inside or outside and offering them some leaf cover is probably what you should take away from all of this.

@@nuuwnhuus Yeah the second part of the title of that news item was the only honest part, the rest was all gross misrepresenting what that vet said. People are really disgusting when for money they spread complete lies like that

OMG! This comment totally hits home as to how governments use the media to control (herd) humans. LOL. Nicely said.

Chickens are very voracious and have no mercy

@@empirepolice8313 i've seen chickens who were born together. were kept with more than enough space and more than enough food, just peck each other to death. brother against brother, for literally no reason as they all had more food than they could eat and more water than they could drink and a lot of space.

The term should now be called *uncommon* sense

That's THE understatement.

@@Catsarecool2023 *eaten

Bogdan Bogdan Are you stupid? Did anything I say indicate my home is a freaking hatchery? My hens and 2 roosters came from private breeders. I rehomed the roosters that were excess because they actually harm one another and overbred the hens causing them injury, too. The two roosters I have remaining are brothers who hatched together and they don’t fight each other. You know NOTHING about reality. Roosters will gouge another’s eyes out, and even murder another rooster. They are not kind, thoughtful, sweet, caring people. They are animals driven by their hormones to dominate and win. Some will also attack humans, including children. They will go for children’s eyes, just like they will to their competition within a flock. And those sweet little clucking hens will peck another hen to death and eat it. Nature is NOT sweet little kittens and puppies...it is violent and harsh, painful and cruel. Have you ever eaten another being as it screams? That is the natural world, hon. My little flock is balanced and nurtured...they have food and water and a safe place to escape bad weather, lay their eggs, and sleep. In the daytime they have their freedom to roam a huge area and live happily. When I walk down the hill, the whole flock runs to greet me, and goes happily into their coop for the night. They have a livestock guardian dog to deter predators that would eat them alive. Kiss my butt, you ignorant fool.

@@Mulberrysmile i think you missed his point, he was talking about how, in industrial hatcheries and egg farms, battery hens are killed when their egg production slows, and how they toss male chicks into a grinder shortly after they're hatched

bahahaahhaha

beleive it or not I have a couple of friends who hate to go outside very much, but they dont call such people happy but rather disturbed it is even called a mental disorder (forget the actual name) they are fearful of being out of their own yard however small it may be, in fact one friend her husband has to go grocery shopping another she wont drive a car and I believe she has a license, she hates crowds, it is very difficult for her but they dont call this well contented and happy people but rather suffering some kind of disablity. so much for being happier ina cage thing.

If possible... in your area raise a rooster. They will fight the owls and hawks.. and warn your girls to get them undercover

Or get a dog in the coop.

Or anything really.
