I think that it should be illegal to ponder that much on a Sunday afternoon, quite frankly.

caged eggs is one of those things that i feel pretty strongly about, so if i couldn't afford free range ones, then i wouldn't buy them....or i'd buy a 6 pack of free range ones

HotI -if someone gives me stuff for my kids that i am unhappy with or don't like, then i just drop it straight down to my local animal shelter's op shop. that way the money made is at least going to a good cause and helping orphaned animals.

We got two chickens, so I don't need to think about the egg issue anymore!

I won't buy eggs if there are no free-range ones. And proper free-range, not the brands that say cage-free but are actually barn laid which is only a small step above cages. Now if I browse at the eggs and don't get any, DS will ask "are there only the yucky cage eggs?" lol.

But then I am a bit two-sided with the chicken issue - I won't support cage eggs, but I do buy chicken meat and those chickens live in exactly the same conditions. I feel guilty every time I buy chicken to eat but we only have a small supermarket and there is no alternative except to go without.

I also had an egg thread around here somewhere... Let's talk about free-range eggs

Sorry but barn layed eggs are fine by me but I do prefer free range. My grandad had a chook farm, barn layers, and they were always happy hens never over crowded
