Almost all of Canada's 26 million egg-laying (battery) hens are kept in the most appalling conditions imaginable. They are crammed so tightly into small wire cages that their feathers chafe off. Feces from hens above cover the hens on lower levels. And this is standard for the industry... This farm is owned by Dr. Loyd Weber, a veterinarian, who was a member of the dean's veterinary advisory council at the University of Guelph at the time of filming.
