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.

Yesterday Wednesday 24th October, between approximately 3pm and 4pm our grounds keeper's ute was stolen off the Park while he was mowing nearby. It had many of his tools in it as well.
It is a twin cab blue 2004 Holden Rodeo, registration BWC582. It was very low on fuel so would not have gone far without refueling.
We are disgusted and shocked by the audacity of this theft here at our place which is also the community's place!
Spread the word please people.
If you know about this, or, see this vehicle - please report it to the Police.

The Oakleigh upgrade is one of the first in the summer programme of work on 230 lane kilometres of state highway to improve maintenance and safety just south of Whangarei.
The road works are happening just south of the Mangapai Rd intersection in Oakleigh on SH1. The works will involve ripping up about 200 metres of road surface and replacing it with new aggregate and seal.
Our methodology to minimise delays means that the road will be closed to all traffic for two nights on October28 and Monday October 29 at night from 9pm to 5am.
A detour will be in place for south-bound traffic via Mangapai Rd, Paparoa Rd, Paparoa-Oakleigh Rd, and SH12 back to SH1 (The detour is the same in reverse for north-bound traffic and will add another 30 minutes to the journey time.
EV stations are available at Mangawhai and Whangarei .
Works will then continue in this area over the next ten nights between 7pm and 5am where we have one lane open at a time with stop/go traffic management and temporary speed limits in place. Our work is weather dependent and we expect to have completed works by November 8.
NZTA urges all motorists to take care, drive to the conditions, please keep to the posted speed limits this will keep our workers safe and other road users when travelling through the work area.
The road crews will ensure that local residents can come and go from their properties at all times.
