Critics say the battery system causes the spread of disease, requires the painful de-beaking of birds, and restricts natural bird behaviors, such as dusting or nesting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Have Access to Outside\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Free Range\" and \"Free Roaming\" are terms that bring to mind idyllic barnyard scenes. These labels, which are regulated by the USDA, may be used by a producer if their hens are allowed some access to the outdoors. This does not guarantee constant access, nor is there any specification of the size of the outdoor area (which is, of course, a penned area, not a range).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Beaks Clipped\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also known as debeaking, or beak trimming, is a process by which parts of the \u003ca title=\"Beak\" href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beak\">beak\u003c/a> of a \u003ca title=\"Chicken\" href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chicken\">chicken\u003c/a> or \u003ca title=\"Turkey (bird)\" href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turkey_%28bird%29\">turkey\u003c/a> are trimmed. Many variations of debeaking are used. Most commonly, the beak is shortened permanently, with the lower beak somewhat longer than the upper beak. The goal of this is to reduce cannibalism in stressed-out bird populations, such as in crowded egg-laying hen houses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Forced Molted\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When light and temperature are manipulated so hens lay eggs more than normal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Omega-3 enriched\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Omega-3 is a polyunsaturated fatty acid considered crucial by some for developing brains and preventing heart disease and depression.
