  2. I come from a hen that has lived in a dark, damp factory environment all its life. ▪ The hens are kept in small tight cages from which they are unable to turn around or move. ▪ The cages have a sloped floor which allows the eggs to roll to the front. ▪ The hens stand on a layer of manure they have produced themselves. Sometimes their wings or beaks are clipped. ▪ The hens are fed hormones and chemicals which allow them to produce a higher than average yield of eggs per day. ▪ These are the cheapest eggs to buy.

  4. I come from a hen who is not caged but confined to a shed, often standing in manure, with cramped conditions. • I come from a hen that is able to stretch their wings - and are therefore probably slightly better off than battery hens- but l never see daylight or breathe fresh air. • I come from a hen that is fed normal cheap grain but not given hormones to increase egg production • I come from a hen that is unable to roam outside freely

  6. I come from a hen that has been allowed to roam freely outside within a farmyard, a shed or a chicken coup • I come from a hen that has been fed very good quality or sometimes organic feed • I come from a hen that is allowed to nest in its own natural habit and lay eggs when it feels most comfortable • The yolk of my egg is an intense yellow • I am the most expensive egg to buy
