What's un'organic' about bugs & grubs?
Concrete base 'range' is about 100% unnatural. gack.
Perhaps we need 'natural' eggs: from chickens that are allowed to
live in natural conditions. No concrete, free access to bugs &
worms. I'd allow / encourage some free access roosting enclosure as
looking for eggs under bushes is a bit of a pain.
I had a bunch of truly free running chickens for a while. Good eggs.
No boughten feed. They took advantage of an open barn to roost.
Shat on the machinery. :(
