battery farm are small cages. especialy, battery cages for chickens are to small
Battery cages are small wire cages used in industrial egg production to confine hens. The cages restrict movement, do not allow natural behaviors, and can lead to health issues for the birds. Many animal welfare advocates argue that battery cages are inhumane.
Battery chickens are called so because they are typically raised in battery cages, which are small wire enclosures used in intensive farming to confine multiple chickens. The term "battery" refers to the arrangement of these cages in tiers or rows, similar to the cells in a battery. This intensive confinement system is often criticized for the inhumane treatment of the chickens.
I think it is cruel however if the animals is hurt no
Battery chickens, the chickens used in egg production, are kept in battery cages. These are tiny cages with very little room for the chicken. They are kept in conditions that would shock most people who eat their eggs. Bright, artificial lights are used to simulate daylight, to make them lay more than they would in natural conditions. They can barely move in their cages, are kept separate from other chickens, and do not have freedom or any kind of natural conditions to live in. Free-range eggs are eggs from free-range chickens, chickens kept in natural conditions- normal lighting, better food, and room to move around. While battery chickens produce more eggs per chicken with less room, the chickens themselves need better care than that, or so many people think.
Yes they are in most cases, if the chickens have been bred in cages it should say battery hens on the box!! :)
No statistics have been kept on the number of battery chickens that get urine rash, but it seems like few of them would, as the cages have openings that allow urine to drain freely.
they are in the bird section in cages
They are kept in tiny cages all stacvked up in a big barn. They have a food/water tray in front of them and a tub behind them to collect eggs. They can not move around at all and often their cages aren't cleaned, so no they are not injured, just mistreated.
by keeping them in the cages that don't have have bars.
