155. Sorry to bust the bubble

but I worked in a chicken coup.

This is free roaming, by industry definition, not cage free. So unless your chickens are coming from a small operation, (like the ones I happen to buy eggs from at the market)... this is what you are doing.

And enjoying sucks for you, but again, tribes used to celebrate the success of the hunt. You could say it is in the genes. I mean, success means we eat, and survive.
