This is just more watering down of the word "organic" and the phrases "cage free" and "free range". What I don't see here is the word "pasture". All you have to do to distinguish an egg from a pastured chicken from one of the above is to crack it open. A pale, urine-specimen colored yolk is from a chicken raised on "higher-quality feed". A nice orange yolk is from a pastured chicken which eats bugs and weeds and has completely different levels of omega 3s. Here's a reference to get you started: http://www.motherearthnews.com/eggs.aspx

And my survey, not too far from Athens, GA? You can find lots of places to buy pastured eggs for $2 a dozen. Try craigslist.
