question about "Cage-free" eggs
and free rnage chicken. I always buy both at the supermarket, more eggs then chicken actually. Do these animals really get to roam around all day or is it more like...ok 15 minutes of running and pecking and then back in the coop.

1. depends on the company
some are just in huge outdoor pens, others are in smaller "cages" that are moved around so they are on fresh ground often. Any chance to buy at a local farmers market? Meet the people who are raising your food - go visit the farms.
