what about predators?
what do you feed them?
Do they go inside the chicken coops by themselves in night?
Do you have roosters in this video?
What species do you have?
Thank you

@Organicchickenlady Actually a laying hen will weigh more then 1.5 - 2.0 lbs unless your talking about leghorns but that is still wrong. Brown egg layers will get up to a good 6 pounds for example ( barred plymouth rock and rhode Island red's).

@Organicchickenlady What sort of chickens are you used to raising? Seramas? Only a bantam (or, miniature) chicken will dress out that small when grown. A regular egg layer hen such as a Rhode Island Red, Buff Orphington, or Plymouth Barred Rock will weigh at least a good 6 to 8.5 pounds and dress out to at least a minimum of 4 to 6 pounds. I can only assume that you are only used to raising bantam (miniature) chickens. The weights you gave fit more along the lines of smaller bantam breeds.

@chechnya If an egg (or anything for that matter) is labled "organic", it HAS to be certified by a third party to be organic. Free range just means that the hens are not in cages. They are free to roam, in the barn, or on pasture. Most of the extra cost has to do with feed. It cost 2x the amount to feed hens all certified organic feed. Everything in the ration is much higher than conventional price, and most organic producers are small scale, and need higher pay prices to make a living
