Hi neighbours,

Chicken is a popular dish for many Kiwi families. But are you happy to pay the extra cost for free-range or organic chicken? If so, why do you fork out extra for it? Although buying free-range chicken might be an ethical choice for many, it's not necessarily any healthier than other chicken.

As part of a new Stuff series, we look at why chicken is so cheap to buy nowadays, what happens inside the barn, why chickens get so big and the use of antibiotics in chicken feed. To learn more about what happens to your chicken before you put it in your shopping trolley, click the links above.

We took part in a mihi to the flock roosting just off-shore on a rare shell-bank, acknowledged the elements of our special environment and heard how the birds' flight-path has been tracked and of the risks to their habitat world-wide - including New Zealand. Thanks to Auckland Council and Local Community Ranger, Devonport Peninsula Trust, New World Devonport, Shore to Thrive, Oona Caldwell, BeanBoy , Tāmaki Makaurau Placemaking Week 2018, and Forest & Bird North Shore.
