Space:
Pasture raised hens require a minimum of 108 square feet of outdoor space per bird, while free range hens only need a few square feet.
Diet:
Pasture raised chickens primarily eat grass and bugs from their large outdoor area, leading to richer yolk color and potentially higher nutritional value compared to free range hens who may primarily eat feed.
Quality perception:
Generally, pasture raised eggs are considered to be of higher quality due to the more natural grazing behavior of the hens.

回複 'AnnYuan' 的評論 : It is great. Free cage( 走地) is different from Pasture raised.The latter has larger spaces for roaming,etc. the organic pasture raised does not make much difference based on my experiences. The best brand is Vital Farm. The whole food brand costs less, which is also good.

【我一直以為有機蛋一定也是走地雞蛋,】
有機蛋和走地雞蛋是兩個互相獨立的概念。
有機蛋專指飼料,種飼料時不能用化肥和農藥。
(Organic foods must be grown on plots that are free from pesticides and chemical fertilizers,)
走地雞蛋專指雞棚,雞可以走出雞棚,到露天去漫遊。
雞蛋可以是以下四種:
既有機,又走地
有機,非走地
非有機,走地
既非有機,又非走地

回複 '寒芯' 的評論 : 謝謝你的建議。查了一下,
Pasture-raised eggs come from hens that are raised using natural methods and have access to outdoor pastures:
Roam freely: Hens are allowed to roam the farm during the day, scratching and pecking for bugs and worms.
Sleep in a chicken house: Hens return to their chicken house at night.
Have more space: Hens are given more space to roam, socialize, and forage. For example, Vital Farms gives each hen at least 108 square feet of space.
Rotate fields: Fields are rotated so that hens always have fresh pasture to explore.
Eat locally grown feed: Hens are fed locally grown grain and plant-based proteins.
