Have you been ripped off by not-so free range eggs? Join our campaign calling for real free range: choice.good.do/freerange before Ministers meet tomorrow!

Our latest report has revealed that many free range egg products fail to meet the national model code of practice (1,500 hens per hectare). Of the 55 products we looked at, we could only find stocking densities for 35, and only 15* of those comply with the model code. Read more: https://goo.gl/887H5b

State, Territory and Federal Ministers are meeting tomorrow to decide whether to progress a national free range egg standard. If you want a genuine, enforceable meaning for 'free range' write to the Ministers today! choice.good.do/freerange

Do you buy any of the products listed? Are you surprised to learn many of the big brands fail to meet the model code of practice?

*Southern Highland Organics Free Range Eggs stocking density is actually 800 hens per hectare (less than the model code), not 2,500 as listed in our graphic.

Thanks to The Farmacy for the image!
