RE: Free-range eggs: Why they matter
Free range eggs can actually taste better and be more colourful than caged or factory. People wouldn't let their pets live in these factory sheds, so why do we let chickens?
You're totally right. The hen's diet will influence the colour of the yolk, so an outdoor hen's will be darker (because they can get at bugs and different plants, n' such).
very true...at my friend's farm they just feed their chicken with worms from their everyday food wastes and leaves [horseradish]
