what this means. You get a picture in your head of chickens just wandering around some nice "chicken pasture" (lol) like some bucolic cows or something.

The "hen house" may be bigger and there aren't the "cages", but the conditions aren't great there either, typically.

If I still ate meat, I'd be very careful where it came from. Between the hormones, the antibiotics, the disease, and then the meat-packing conditions - I'm surprised more people don't get sick.
