Thread: Chickens run on energizer now? :moomba:

  1. #1

    Chickens run on energizer now? :moomba:

    Which do/would you buy, battery or free range eggs? (the battery ones are cheaper)

    I've never bought eggs before because we have chickens at home and yesterday I bought eggs and I got the battery ones and now I feel dirty. I don't know why I got them because I wanted to get the free range ones and they were only a dollar more but I was in a hurry and for some reason I still ended up getting the batteries. From now on it's just free range though.

    Ok answer the question now.

    Eggs are disgusting. I would get batteries, preferably rechargeable ones.

    Battery farmed chicken. Finger lickin good!

    Battery hens are caged up in what are essentially factories for the sole purpose of producing eggs. As far as I know, they are fed hormones so that they will keep laying eggs, and never get to see sunlight. Once the chickens are too old/sick to be of any more use, they are culled, ground up, and fed to the remaining hens.

    It is also common for pigs to be battery farmed.

    While I haven't been inside a battery farm, the chicken truck used to pass by my old house frequently, and I can tell you that the chickens are pretty much shoved into a quick chick brick stack.

    I get the eggs from my own chickens, thank you very much.

    EDIT: Meaning free-range.

    How can you tell the difference? My eggs don't say anything about where they were farmed.

    Signature by rubah. I think.

    If it doesn't say <i>Free Range</i> on the egg carton, then they're not.

    I've never eaten anything other than free range eggs.

    And just for the record, I like them scrambled.
