But in my opinion if today's breeds of chickens lived off bugs and worms and had to survive in the outdoors with our varying enviroments- they would have a very difficult time surviving. Our birds are not older mature laying hens. Debi,

Thank you for your comment. But in my opinion if today’s breeds of chickens lived off bugs and worms and had to survive in the outdoors with our varying enviroments- they would have a very difficult time surviving. Our birds are not older mature laying hens.

The are suppose to eat bugs and worms off the ground, out in the open with lots of sunshine and grass! We are what we eat and all the corn and soybeans in our meats products today is causing too many health issues in humans! Chickens are not grain eaters!

The reason that retail buyers of this grain have not stopped buying it is that they are competing for the same dollar you are and this is a way of cutting costs, regardless of whether they doubt that the grain is really organic. The end user of their product probably has no clue whether the producer uses certified Organic US grains or not. Only folks like you speaking out and educating the public will bring this to light.
