Shopping for eggs can be a daunting task these days. The average cost of a dozen large Grade A chicken eggs was $4.25 in December. That's an increase of more than $2.75 a year earlier.
In addition to higher prices, consumers are facing more choices in grocery stores. Some packages say the eggs are"cage-free" and"free-range," but what does that mean?
Cage-free eggs are"laid by hens that are able to roam vertically and horizontally in indoor houses, and have access to fresh food and water." The FDA also notes that the hens must be able to exhibit natural behaviors such as building a nest. In addition, they must be able to"move in a barn in a manner that promotes bird welfare."
