I guess I'm more of a 'nature girl' than you are. I have raised many
many chickens. The ones who got to peck and scratch and even 'clean'
the garden and flirt with the rooster were the egg layers. The
difference in the quality of the eggs
from those who had the room to roam and storebought eggs from those
who did not is marked.

The chickens we raised for meat were kept in a small pen and fed more
'chicken feed'.

And yes, eggs have 'vibes', all things do.
I really do believe it makes a difference.
