Free range all da way.
Srsly, how much damage are we doing to the environment by letting some animals run around in paddocks?
Most kunce cruising around in big arse suv's or v8's are doing more harm to the environment everyday sitting in traffic than worrying about some birds running around in a paddock.
I said this before. Free range hens use up more land. Are about 10% less feed efficient and have higher death rates. That equates to more pollution, worse for the environment and more land used.
With over half a billion egg and meat chickens raised per year in Aus that adds up.
Using rough figures 10% feed efficiency works out to be an extra 300 thousand tons of feed annually for the same meat and eggs from chickens. Insignificant? Lol.

Baz.. gfy kunt.
If I wanted to grow I'd shove an acorn up my arse.
Free-Range ftw. And of course it's for the good of the animal. I don't give a flying fek about productivity or something as trivial as 'the facts'
Lol... Better a short life in the sun than a long life in a cage m8.
Maybe we could go back to juicing them up too.. That might improve their quality of life... Or it must just lead to a spike in chicken on chicken steroid induced violence.
Dead animals can't be sold. Therefore more inefficient.
Ah. Steroids used on chickens. Again don't let facts get in the way of a good story. They were tried in like the 60s or 70 and abandoned because they didn't work very well as chickens are already very good feed converters. They have been banned for around 40 years.
Try again buddy.
Hey Bazz
Higher death rates in free range.

That's different... kangaroos are 'cute' ... (queue the flaming now lads)
I'd be interested to see some evidence of this.
This could be the supp that @chopsuey ; has been looking for??
It's common knowledge that 'Chicken Roid Rage' is becoming a massive problem, particularly among 'aesthetic chickens'. Not looking forward to Stereo brah.....

BTW I'm voting Free Range because the question was what's better for the chicken, not the most economical farming method.
