I buy all my meat and chickens from a family farm that pasture-raises their animals. This is different than buying "free-range" chickens and eggs in the grocery store, since these are still raised on factory farms and just have to have theoretical access to the outside. The grass fed/pasture raised meat and chicken is higher in Omega 3's and lower in saturated fat, in addition to the benefits mentioned above. Humans were not meant to eat artificially fattened animals! I also prefer pasture raised animals because they receive better treatment.
