Why I do not eat eggs: “Virtually all causes of suffering and mortality in egg laying hens are attributable to their being bred to lay eggs.” “In their natural state, unhindered by human oppression, they do not simply survive. They can thrive and have a lifespan of thirty years. By comparison, … it is difficult for rescued hens, even from backyard or organic situations, to survive beyond four or five years of age.” — Sandra Higgi ns, Eden Farm Animal Sanctuary
