Regular meat chickens are raised in large, purpose-built chicken sheds where the chickens are able to roam at will with easy access to food and water. Free-range chickens are free to roam in the external environment but are generally housed from sunset to sunrise as protection from predators. Free-range chickens are free to forage outdoors but are generally fed indoors to discourage predators.
