Hi, I wish I could. City does not allow it. Reason is possible smell or noise. People trying to change the by-law limiting the number of hens per back yard. Mean time we buy free range eggs which costs almost double the battery eggs. But they taste better and more nutrition rich.

That's cause free range chickens eat bugs rather than grain.

Hi, Exactly. We visited farm where the eggs come from, they have nests here and there and hens just roam the field except COLD winter time, eggs are collected from the daily visit to nests. They are all brown eggs all Large, very large size eggs.

Farm women of my mom's generation raised chickens both for the eggs and the meat. The chickens were cooped up each night for protection from the night critters. They could roam around the farmyards to catch bugs during the day though. A weasel got into the neighbor's coop once. There weren't many surviving hens as I remember. Chickens would lay their eggs in nests in the coop. Yep, the eggs were mostly large and brown.
