Pledge To Not Buy Battery Cage Eggs
Lend
your voice to the animals by pledging to not buy eggs from caged hens*.
More than 275 million egg-laying hens are currently suffering in wire battery
cages in the United States today. This archaic and inherently cruel system of
confinement has been outlawed in many European countries, and barren battery
cages are being phased out of the entire European Union by 2012. No such legislative
advancements, however, exist in the U.S.yet.
The hens need your voice! Consumers who don't want to support the very worst
abuse of the egg industry can speak out for egg-laying hens by refusing to buy
egg from caged birds and help set the stage for a nationwide move away from
battery cage egg production.
* Most eggs from caged hens are not labeled as such. However, eggs produced
on farms that don't use cages are generally labeled as "cage-free."
