Or so you've been told by whatever industry...

I take all of that with a grain of salt and concentrate on providing the best farm environment possible and allowing nature to mitigate the issues for me. This is way it was done for millenia before corporate agriculture and media got involved. Non-mainstream education is paramount in this area.

You have never actually tasted a truly "pastured" chicken if you still think it tastes "bland". Read everything you can from Joel Salatin. :-)

The chickens we raised on pasture had the deepest flavor of anything we ever experienced and our birds were some of the healthiest I've ever seen.

Chickens are easy to infect when they are genetically compromised as you get with birds raised on commercial poultry feed and living in confined spaces.

Birds raised on pasture are much less susceptible to this. There is a world of difference between the two. Much has been written on this subject.

Chickens and other poultry eat insects if they are raised on pasture. They directly convert this abundant food source for us. Chickens taste better and are easy enough for anyone to raise.
