Grin, means the chickens arent full of antibiotics and are let loose in the 
yard vice being kept in a hatchery type thing all the time.
They taste different (the chickens, not the eggs) because they are better 
exercised.  Not as fatty, but some find them tough and stringy.
Personally, I'm used to getting 'free range' chicken eggs from farmers 
direct, and paying *less* than normal non-free range egg prices at the stores 
but if he can sell them for more than store cost, more power to him!
