Can confirm. I had a meat chicken ranch that had 250,000 each flock (45 days from hatch to market). I changed to a different processor who marketed them as "free range". I had to cut doors every 100 ft on one side of the barns and make a little fenced area for them to go outside. A barn full of 50,000 had maybe 100 chicken's outside at any given time. The birds are not stupid. They know where the food, water, safety, and comfortable conditions are. Free range, non GMO, non antibiotic are keywords that mean nothing.
What about “pasture raised” eggs? I buy these from Aldi and they have a nice dark orange yolk. Are they legit?
Yes pasture raised is a whole other deal. They typically have smaller flocka and keep them in moveable huts that they can move throughout the pasture. The natural grass and bug the chickens get in addition to the type of feed they are given give the yolks a nice dark yellow/orange color compared to others
