Free range eggs or Organic eggs as we call them are supposed to be cheaper than the commercial or eggs that came from caged-birds. It is because of the low input or low investment of the housing that lacks it. Plus the feed are not commercially prepared. Promoting organic produce will be having a hard time to climb up the market as compared with the commercially produce ones because of the artificial cost of production that it entails.

I suppose not caged or free range just means they are allowed to roam, in the same way that jamon jabugo pigs can forage for acorns on acres and acres of land rather than being penned and fed… I don’t think it is a major issue. If the price of truly organic eggs from either a pen or free range were the same, I would be inclined to buy the free range ones I suppose… perhaps up to 10% more in price even, if just for the knowledge (rational or not) that the chickens were just doing their thing instead of being stuck in a chicken hotel in close quarters being forced to lay eggs at a maximum pace…

CAGE FREE HENS vs CAGED HENS……..this subject has bothered me somewhat since I have experienced the Organic Egg Diet, religiously…….some farms put CAGE FREE on their cartons of eggs, and some do not and claim if asked, that we cage our hens to protect them from disease and bacteria…….my question which i have not had an answer for is this::::: is caged free that important?? or not?? obviously there are many other ways that make their eggs Organic, as we all know……
Them that are cage free say their Hens are Happy Hens, thus making a difference…..Food for thought……..to end , with my comment:: I believe cage free is better as long as the Farm can provide clean and confined facilities….Maybe those who cage their Hens are using their old facilities because of the cost to protect the cage free Hens, and the cost of maybe more labor to keep the facility safe and clean……if so, should the advertisement still say Organic?? I say yes, but with a little caution….Maybe i would inquire to witness their facility…….I would like some comments on this to come to peace with this subject…..thanks for this site…..
