I was walking down to the lower field the other day, when I came upon this view of our broiler chickens foraging. Sometimes it is hard to explain why our pastured broilers taste so much better (and are so much better for you) than supermarket chicken. It struck me that the sight of them roaming around, looking for bugs and eating grass says it all. So I took a video.
And just by way of comparison, here is what a supermarket chicken’s home looks like:
I could not open a video, but can I forward the pictures to others?
I forgot to sign in, so the video is good! Thanks for the visual reminder of why we are only buying organic eggs. I heard a rumor that the word” organic” on supermarket eggs does not guarentee that they are free range. Anyone know the facts?
The photo on the bottom doesn’t capture all the drugs and hormones that you can’t see either. Good post.
