Some people just can't be reasoned with. You can still scold him, but it'll be a hollow victory.

All that remains is to show that biological systems replicate in such a way as to satisfy the minimal criteria required for evolution to apply to them, something which has already been adequately shown time and again. At this point, we've pretty much proven that not only can evolution happen, it pretty much must happen since it's basically impossible to prevent it from happening.

You're right... "vegetable-fed" eggs. :D

Don't be silly. The sad truth they don't tell you is that free-range chickens don't have their diets monitored, and the little buggers can and do eat anything and everything they come across. Bugs, feces, carrion, whatever. Not a joke. And then they let you, the consumer, pay more for the priv of eating a product designed entirely to cater to enforced guilt.

Also, no difference between colors of eggs, and there are several. You just usually see brown or white in the markets.

They are, believe it or not, much better off on well-regulated diets full of all the vitamins and nutrients they need, safe from the elements in closely-monitored steady-temperatured pens where they have less anxiety due to being able to be close to one another. There is less hen-pecking in limited environments, less overall stress - and if you don't believe that, allow me to point out that a stressed hen will not lay eggs. It ... rather defeats the purpose of going into the egg business if you're going to mistreat your animals and not have as high a production level as is healthy and possible.

Apologies, but I've seen the actual scientific reports, the results of the various testing that has been done, and a vague article from a biased source claiming that unmonitored feeding results in healthier product and chickens is, much like them, not gonna fly.

You would also be surprised with how much of a reduction in the overall carbon footprint that chicken farming has made over the past eighty years. I've seen those reports firsthand as well. If I were all that invested, I'd look up the sources and all, with the numbers going back for all those years, and tracking the overall health, waste management, feed levels, etc, but meh. This is TET. :P

And if chicken farm is large enough, all that shit can make farm energy and heating independent.
