Battery Hen's usually produce a runny white which spreads across the pan, when their eggs are cooked. A true free range egg white sits nicely around the yolk when cracked into the fry pan. Therefore the difference is diet, free range hen's graze on grass and dig up things in the soil and also eat insects, snails, worms etc.

The conclusion then in my opinion is make sure there is a more varied diet.

No. Those are soft boiled eggs. Hard boiled eggs have solid yolks. To get good hard boiled eggs, cover the eggs in water, bring to a boil, turn OFF the heat, let them set in the hot water for 12 minutes. The yolks will be solid and not overcooked.

They crack because of the egg whites. When you are boiling any food the heat will rise. This causes the egg whites to expand and therefore cracks the egg. Hope this helps.

Unrefrigerated eggs or not-super-fresh (aka grocery store eggs) - fresh from the hen same day eggs, or eggs which have been promptly refrigerated from the hen will not have runny whites.

A hard boiled egg is cooked until solid all the way through, a normal 'soft' boiled egg the centre yolk will still be runny, To test the egg you need to do is spin the egg on a flat surface, if the egg is soft boiled it will wobble because part of the egg is still liquid, if it is hard boiled it will spin on end, because the contents are solid.

Why is it incorrect to say hard boiled eggs?

This is a fairly minor point of usage, but if you say hard boiled eggs you could be interpretted as saying that the eggs are both hard and boiled, when what you really mean is that the eggs were hard-boiled, which is to say, boiled for a longer time than they would be if you wanted soft-boiled eggs. So you can use the hyphen.
