    We get our eggs from some friends who have chickens. They are kept in a coop but not cages. But I doubt it makes any difference in the taste. I think it may be the feed, but the eggs taste way better than the ones from the store and the yolks are a brighter yellow.

    Ours don’t run around the yard. I have a “chicken pasture” that they stay in.

    They were going to be caged hens a few weeks after that picture.

    Had broilers for years. No more of those. Some pullets off and on.

    Gotcha. We looked into it at one time. It was an insane amount of investment to get a contract. Had to have 4 houses minimum I think each one was 150k to build. This was 20 years ago too
     
    Oxbow Thanks this.

    I grew up in it @40 years of it. It was like most other things good years and bad years wondering whats next. You dont want to know what they cost today. Its kinda like being a driver and its always the drivers fault. Bad birds and it was the growers fault.
     
    Knucklehead, ElmerFudpucker and Oxbow Thank this.

    This gives me an unpleasant flashback. This is where I started my trucking career.
