“But California would be the first state in the nation to demand that all egg-producing chickens be kept in more spacious enclosures or free to roam around a henhouse.”

I see absolutely zero problems with this.

Three hens spend their entire egg laying life in a 1 foot cube box. What hurts in giving them more space or free roam.

We once had several houses of layers I know I have been there so flame away.

Maybe the good people in California will share some space so the chickens have more room to roam?

Come on, don’t be selfish!

It is none of the Governments damn business. Is that so hard for you to understand? This is how most egg laying hens spend their lives.

“I see absolutely zero problems with this.”

These things are gateways for animal rights activists to ban all animal production. That is the goal.
That's whats wrong with it.

What looks cruel to humans, is many times not to animals. Farmers must keep animals relatively comfortable, or the animals will not be productive.
