Salmonella and the cage free egg
Cage free hens live in healthier conditions as a rule, no over crowding, less litter and so on. They are free to balance their diet with bugs, grass, and other tidbits that they eat by instinct. Also being outside the waste does not accumulate, salmonella likes alot of waste to breed in. Cage free hens are able to enjoy a dust bath, a simple thing in which they will role around in saw dust or clean soil , fluffing their feathers. A dust bath helps keep the hens clean of insects that can carry salmonella.
