Space:
Pasture raised hens require a minimum of 108 square feet of outdoor space per bird, while free range hens only need a few square feet.
Diet:
Pasture raised chickens primarily eat grass and bugs from their large outdoor area, leading to richer yolk color and potentially higher nutritional value compared to free range hens who may primarily eat feed.
Quality perception:
Generally, pasture raised eggs are considered to be of higher quality due to the more natural grazing behavior of the hens.

回复 'AnnYuan' 的评论 : It is great. Free cage( 走地) is different from Pasture raised.The latter has larger spaces for roaming,etc. the organic pasture raised does not make much difference based on my experiences. The best brand is Vital Farm. The whole food brand costs less, which is also good.

【我一直以为有机蛋一定也是走地鸡蛋，】
有机蛋和走地鸡蛋是两个互相独立的概念。
有机蛋专指饲料，种饲料时不能用化肥和农药。
（Organic foods must be grown on plots that are free from pesticides and chemical fertilizers,）
走地鸡蛋专指鸡棚，鸡可以走出鸡棚，到露天去漫游。
鸡蛋可以是以下四种：
既有机，又走地
有机，非走地
非有机，走地
既非有机，又非走地

回复 '寒芯' 的评论 : 谢谢你的建议。查了一下，
Pasture-raised eggs come from hens that are raised using natural methods and have access to outdoor pastures:
Roam freely: Hens are allowed to roam the farm during the day, scratching and pecking for bugs and worms.
Sleep in a chicken house: Hens return to their chicken house at night.
Have more space: Hens are given more space to roam, socialize, and forage. For example, Vital Farms gives each hen at least 108 square feet of space.
Rotate fields: Fields are rotated so that hens always have fresh pasture to explore.
Eat locally grown feed: Hens are fed locally grown grain and plant-based proteins.
