According the the actual requirements for labeling free range means that they need to have the door open (but they don't need to go out of it) for a prescribed proportion of the day. I think it is actually half an hour. Free range is one of the biggest BS terms when used by the industry. I am so disenheartened sometimes by the FDA, it seems like they go out of their way to mislead.

When I advertize on Craigslist I put Pastured Eggs in the title, and further explain in my ad that they are backyard chickens who sleep in a coop at night, but have free range of my back yard every day.


"free range" is a BS term that is over-used in the egg business, and I never use it to describe MY eggs becaues of that.

How about the term "farm raised free range chicken eggs for sale. I just started selling mine but do not have regular customers yet ! Everyone comments that they do taste good but it seems like a problem for folks to make special trip just for eggs
