Mission: Use These Labels to Expose the Truth About ‘Cage-Free’ Eggs
Have you ever seen a carton of eggs with a “cage-free” label? 🤔 That’s the egg industry’s way of making consumers think that chickens on cage-free farms live comfortably—which is complete cap. 🧢 Use these free egg carton labels to spread the word that cage-free does NOT mean cruelty-free!
What Does ‘Cage-Free’ Look Like?
Even though chickens on cage-free farms aren’t trapped in tiny battery cages, that doesn’t mean they get to roam free and vibe with their friends. They are often crammed into filthy sheds and don’t get to see sunlight, go outdoors, or socialize naturally. 🐔😢 At hatcheries, day-old male chicks are often ground up alive or tossed in the trash because they can’t produce eggs. 🐥😨 At the end of the day, cage-free farms still rob chickens of their eggs including debeaking, intense crowding, and slaughtering the hens as soon as their productivity drops—and no misleading label can justify that cruelty.
