We have hens to have eggs. My boys hated the fresh eggs, because they tasted different. Now after years of eating free range eggs, eggs from the grocery taste blah, lol.


When we butcher a 4 month old chicken , or older, the meat is richer ( and tougher); a completely different eating experience. The cornish cross butchered at 8-10 weeks old is flavorless mush.,lol.


Grass fed cattle tastes different than corn -finished, and waygu beef tastes different.

Grass fed pork is richer, wild boar is strong,

Mutton is a stronger flavor than lamb.

How a meat animal is raised affects the flavors.
