The hens are raised stress free as anyone or anything jailed up is not healthy. Health affects their chemical make up of their bodies.
Yes it is worth the extra dollars even if other people think it is not all it's cracked up to beHealth Question & Answer

Yes indeed. Free-range eggs are much more nutritious than plain white ones. This is cos hens which are free to roam about consume more healthy, nutritious and natural feed (animals know better than humans what's best for them and of course the right quantities). also, plain white eggs are actually processed and made 'white'. No egg is white. All hen's lay eggs in varying shades of brown. Thus, the free-range eggs are free of that chemical used to make your eggs white and are more healthy n nutritious. This is the actual reason why they tend to be more expensive than white eggs!

No. Cage-free eggs come from hens that are allowed to roam around their coops rather than being penned in small cages. Giving the hens more space is more costly, which translates to a higher price for the egg.

Whether the difference in price is worth it is basically an ethical question, not a nutritional one.Health Question & Answer

We have chickens. We keep them enclosed, for their own protection.
There are too many wild animals that would love chicken for dinner.
We let them out during the day and they go to roost at night, back in the safety of their pen.
Chickens 'molt' in the winter, where they do not lay eggs. I will go without, before I eat store-bought eggs. The difference in flavor and nutrients is remarkable.Health Question & Answer

Amazingly, free range chickens lay a better quality egg because they are not stressed out by being caged, and can eat a variety of other things besides what the farmer decides to feed it...they are worth the extra money.Health Question & Answer

No, they are not more nutritious, however some people claim they taste better. I personally don't eat my eggs plain, so whatever subtle taste differences there may be are lost to onions, ham, cheese and ketchup. :)Health Question & Answer

cage free or free ranging.?
nutricion is the same
it has to do with flavour and colour
free range will scratch for feed other than what is provided
