Went to Morrisons today to get some eggs as they sell 6 free range ones for 55p which in my opinion is an absolute bargain but as pe bloody usual they had none in stock. Anyway, I went to another shop in town (I don't want to say the name of the shop for fear of reprisals) and the only eggs they had in stock were those cruel eggs from battery hens (NOT free range).
My question is if you were desperate for an egg and the only ones you could buy were the cruel ones (made by chickens in cages) would you buy them? Personally I would but hey ho we are all free to do what we want (within the law)
Edit: I meant I went to Morrisons yesterday (Saturday) [Post edited 4 Dec 2022 5:29]

Surely all a bit odd to advertise as free range at the minute, as don’t they all have to be inside due to Bird Flu?
Eggs is probably the only thing we try and buy organic if possible. Though appreciate current climate might make that difficult for some/many.
Don’t really care about the pesticides/herbicides, but makes a really surprisingly significant difference to the amount of space they have. Free range can be quite poor ethically really (but much better than caged!!). |  | | |

Not that I believe this nonsense, but Morrisons actually sell eggs individually in the fruit and veg section (I don't know...) so it's not completely out of the question the OP could be getting confused about the quantity or they are selling them as some sort of loss leader/promotion for that price. |  |

Is there are reason you can't see inside the box?

That’s a bit too sophisticated, meathead is the sort that needs to challenge himself or be lost to fear.
But yes, there is a reason, it keeps things hidden from egg reprisalists! |  | | |

Wasn’t there a roundabout at Bungay that was known as chicken roundabout? Plenty of eggs there I reckon…..if they still exist of course. |  | | |

A chicken can still be classed as free range despite current restrictions. Also, provided the outside run is covered and is netted around the sides they can still roam outdoors. | | | |

There was some talk of the turkey situation on the radio this week and a breeder was saying those are still considered free-range if they have spent X amount of their lives outside.
So despite the current situation where they need to be inside they will still be labelled as free range for that reason.
I assume the same applies to other poultry/eggs etc, but I don't know for sure. |  |

Egg alert Malcolm.
Morrisons in Diss today had eggs, eggs of all shapes and sizes, a veritable egg fest of eggs. Free range eggs £1.99 for a dozen, half dozen boxes of eggs at £1.25 stacked a dozen boxes high. Non for 55p though. Some nice looking duck eggs too.
I’ll be having eggs for breakfast tomorrow morning. Might even have a couple poached after the football. |  |
| We have no village green, or a shop.
It's very, very quiet.
I can walk to the pub. |

Have a look at Clarence Court eggs.
Truly free range and no beak trimming. | |

Is that the correct price you are advertising for the supermarket you do name? I thought they were 20 p each. |  |
