Information AboutFree-range Egg |
|
Free-range eggs are Bird s' Egg s generally intended for human consumption which have been farmed without intensive Factory Farming methods. The birds are usually Hen s, though they may be Duck s or Geese . Under the usual interpretation, the main difference between Free Range and Factory Farmed eggs is that the birds are permitted to roam freely within the farmyard and only kept in Shed s or Henhouse s at night. However, the U.S. Department Of Agriculture has not instituted a legal standard on what free range eggs actually mean, thus allowing egg producers to freely label, in theory, any egg as free range eggs.
