Hmm,
I wish I could. My city does not allow it. Reason? Possible smell and
noise. People keep trying to change the by-law. I had by free range
eggs which is almost twice more expensive than battery eggs.

Hi,
I wish I could. City does not allow it. Reason is possible smell or
noise. People trying to change the by-law limiting the number of hens
per back yard. Mean time we buy free range eggs which costs almost
double the battery eggs. But they taste better and more nutrition rich.

That's cause free range chickens eat bugs rather than grain.

Hi,
Exactly. We visited farm where the eggs come from, they have nests here
and there and hens just roam the field except COLD winter time, eggs are
collected from the daily visit to nests. They are all brown eggs all
Large, very large size eggs.

Farm women of my mom's generation raised chickens both for the
eggs and the meat. The chickens were cooped up each night for
protection from the night critters. They could roam around the
farmyards to catch bugs during the day though.
A weasel got into the neighbor's coop once. There weren't many
surviving hens as I remember.
Chickens would lay their eggs in nests in the coop. Yep, the eggs
were mostly large and brown.

I wasn't even in school at the time, I went to feed the chickens and a
rooster spurred me about the head. Ran back to the house, mumbling
something like "the sum beach spurred me."

Out came the axe by my great-aunt - "show me which one," she said.

We had chicken and dumplings for lunch.

Hey,
I grew up plowing, digging, seeding, planting, hardest work being
harvesting rice from the wet paddy field, plant stalks keep poking at
your eyes, LOL. My grand dad used to have Ginseng plantation. Growing
Ginseng is 6 year's hard work until harvest. I grew up chewing raw
Ginseng root like candy.... Hey, those chickens eat worms growing in the
cow pies in summer time... Yuck?, No.
