You've mentioned this place before, RR. I still maintain it must be pretty poorly run place. I have 8000 hens in two barns, and I don't even need a bucket to gather eggs laid on the floor. My barns consistently lay over 95% (that's 95 out of 100 hens lay an egg every day), yet only a handful on the floor. That, and hens typically only lay in the morning until 11 am. Very few eggs are laid after that, so if they're walking the barns 24/7, they're just milking the time clock.
Cage-free is a worthless claim, the same as "natural". the only way to be sure the chickens are treated better than caged birds is to buy "Organic" eggs.
And yes, the term organic means "Chemical compounds containing carbon", but it is also a "label affixed to food products that are produced without chemicals and GMOs".

How about Ignite being a chemical sold by Bayer and also to catch fire? Pretty weak argument, fellas.

The engine on this tractor, a 1937 John Deere "B", had been stuck for 2 years before he gave it to me. This last spring (1999) I hauled the tractor to our 2 acre lot in St. Libory Nebraska where it joined my antique machinery collection, at that time a 1929 Caterpillar T
