I don't buy free-range eggs because none of the people in my
family would be able to tell the difference and the cost is just
too significant. Same with "brown" eggs; the few times I've
purchased brown eggs, no one mentioned anything notable so I went
back to buy my 2-for-1 dozen-and-half weekly purchases.
As far as a production farm; caged chickens laying eggs for mass
production. Almost mechanized from start to finish. <shrug>
