Caged Hens Vs Free Range Hens

We are writing persuasive texts. We are leaning to structure them.
I found it easy to do spelling and punctuation.
I found it hard to do paragraphs.

Should chickens be caged or free range? Chickens are the most common type of bird on earth. Most people raise chickens for their eggs and their meat. Caged hens are called battery hens. In New Zealand out of  3.2 million hens that lay eggs eighty two percent are caged. Caged hens have their beaks trimmed so they don't peck out their feathers or eat each other.

Caged hens are more likely to get diseases like fatty liver disease, osteoporosis and they have the weakest bone strength.

I think free range chickens are a friendly way to raise chickens because it’s not cruel it's safe and gives the chickens a positive lifestyle. Free range  eggs have better nutrition with lots of vitamin D in the yolk. Free range chickens are able to scratch and dig around in the dirt and leaves to look for things to eat. Free range chickens are able to stretch their wings and fly short distances.

I firmly believe that cage chickens should be banned because they can't fluff around, they will get fatty liver disease and they can not act  like a normal chicken.
