Haha that's fair!

They’re monsters. Destructive, noisy, and cannibalistic. We couldn’t possibly eat enough of them.

Although I think we can say that a fresh pandemic is better than some claustrophobic chickens, assuming that being outdoors and mingling is what increases the risk of various illnesses.

Why Free Range Eggs Are Coming Off Supermarket Shelves

> From Monday (March 21), free range eggs will no longer be available in supermarkets. This comes after an outbreak of bird flu, which means that farmers had to move all their chickens indoors.

> The “largest ever outbreak of avian flu” hit the UK this winter, according to government officials, with more than 80 reported outbreaks in England.

> Now, eggs sold in shops will have a sticker or label stating that they are “barn eggs”, which is the name given to eggs produced by hens permanently housed indoors.

H5N1 is no joke

NOT ANYMORE BUDDY

Hens will 100% eat their own eggs. It usually starts with one breaking accidentally, but once they get a taste for egg they won't stop

Starchy & Mush

I dunno if the loophole laws have been changed but in the US 'free-range' eggs often means thousands of chickens stuffed in a barn instead of in battery cages, so the health aspect isn't really any better. Still all stuffed together in a closed space.

Turns out potatoes do look similar

Been watching clarksons farm and seeing how he had to keep them inside because of it, as well as apparently a big TB outbreak in the UK for cows. Everything is challenging now

Both of those are not mutually exclusive currently. They have to be housed and monitored so any free range outlet is trying to do what's right for their hens and the people who consume their eggs.

Can't even house them into retirement.

McDonald's (Ireland) had a sign up in the window today saying eggs are from barn hens and kept inside.

Just checking. Was remembering this post.

Oh my God I need that place so much as an expat Aussie who has lived in America and now Canada 🤣❣️ thank you
