At least here in the UK, unless you directly see where that egg was laid, assume it was horrific.
I went to an egg farm in wales this summer and it was pretty nice. Lots of chickens but they go out to roam every day. Eggs were delicious and bright orange yolks.
ah yes one of the display farms where faeries live and everyone is singing
Dunno where you live, but those things exist in great quantity. You just have to pay a lot more. And if there are no eggs available, there are no eggs available. Simple as that. We actually shop there more to pet the chickens than to buy their period 😁
No, my wife’s childhood friend runs a small farm with her husband and kid.
It’s a farm.
There are sheep and chickens. A dog to help with the sheep.
They aren’t rich. The chickens are not abused as far as I could tell. They are egg laying chickens. At some point they don’t lay eggs well and then they get sold. There is no retirement plan for old hens.
Also, just to be clear I’m sure many places are horrible. I’m just talking about one that I recently went to.
