From a recent article in the Independent.
According to the Worldwatch Institute in Washington. Farmed Animals are Responsible for 51% of Greenhouse Gas Emissions. More than all other sources put together.... Check it.
Govts are focused on reducing Energy Consumption but they need to Reduce Meat Consumption even more.

18 chicken outside but 3000 inside a locked shed ! not very organic

My thought exactly. My husband's friend rented a small property and decided to keep a few chickens. After he took them to a local butcher he gave us a few. There is a big difference between storebought chicken and a chicken that's been chasing my husband around the backyard: the meat has more color, and there is way less fat and very thin skin. I define organic as freerange chicken that's only been eating the worms and bugs in someone's backyard.

@citic101 These chicken actually look the the normal genetic variety, as opposed to the Frankenchickens they use in industrial farming, plus I doubt he can keep all running around outside at the same time. Besides it's cold, so he probably wants to cut potential losses.

Learn to really raise chickens in a natural way, there is a DVD video guide titled Regarding Chickens.. do a net search, you'll find it. I guess "organic" really doesn't say anything about how birds are raised, but rather the feed they receive.... so I guess buyer beware. I suppose Free Range Organic would be something to look for instead? Interesting all in all. Thanks for posting!

14 weeks for them to become adult?

@KillaChiken 14 weeks to slaughter weight...I'd call a chicken 'adult' at sexual maturity which is usually 20 weeks plus.

@LilyISay My parents use to own a chicken farm. 8 houses, 500 ft long which can hold around 25,000-27,000 chickens in one house. We would raise them from being chicks until about an average of 7 weeks. Then they'll take them out into cages.

O come on, the few outside are for show, look at the crowds in the dark. I don't know why people would want to eat poultry raised in the dark if at all. Knock on the door indeed.
Or eggs from hens living like that.
In England there's a group that organizes adoption of battery hens, crowded hens, at week 53, when they would otherwise be slaughtered. They get gardens to live in, for up to 7 more years!
