"They are snapped into shackles by their fragile legs, and have their throats slit, often while they are still conscious. Many are scalded alive in the feather removal tanks""These hens are so crowded, that they are unable to spread one wing during their entire miserable lives … It takes an average of 34 hours in these conditions to produce just one egg. When egg production drops, producers often shock the bodies of the worn-out birds into another laying cycle, by withholding food for up to 14 days. Many die of starvation. Because their bones are so weak, and their bodies so worn down, up to 90% of hens have broken bones, or are haemorrhaging, by the time they make it to slaughter."
