🐓 POV: You’re a backyard hen. Humans focus on your eggs, not you. They bought you from the same hatcheries that killed your brothers and parents. 🔪 Read why no egg is ethical 👉 buff.ly/KBtYEKH #eggtruth #vegetarian

People don't like to hear this, but: Cage-free or free-range doesn’t mean ethical! 😮💨 The problem isn’t housing. It’s the system. A hen may not be in a cage, but her body is still controlled. When she stops producing, she is killed. Learn more 👉 buff.ly/KBtYEKH

🤔 Is eating eggs from “backyard hens” vegan? This assumes owning hens is OK. Keeping chickens in cities & suburbs means accepting their exploitation as the new normal. A cultural battle we can't lose—for the hens 🐓 The Vegan Report by Rayane Laddi explains why 👉 buff.ly/VLQdXEJ #eggtruth

Her first steps on solid ground. 🐔✨ Rescued from an egg farm, this hen never knew freedom—until now. Millions like her are still trapped, their lives reduced to egg production. Labels don’t save them. Compassion does. Please leave eggs off your plate. #eggtruth #vegetarian

🐔 Guess the label. Can you tell which farms these hens were rescued from? #eggtruth #vegetarian

She pays the price for “cheap” eggs. 💔 Around the world, billions of hens are caged so tightly they cannot even spread their wings. The egg industry turned confinement into profit, and gentle birds into machines. Please leave eggs off your plate. #eggtruth #vegetarian

😵 She was rescued from an organic egg farm. Does this look like paying extra made a difference? Her suffering is built into her body, bred to overproduce. If you care about hens, leave eggs off your plate. 👉 www.egg-truth.com/egg-blog/201... #eggtruth #vegetarian

🏭 🐓 Factory farms don’t own the monopoly on cruelty. Backyard hens, too, are bred to lay 300 eggs a year. Reproductive exhaustion. Bone breaks. Cancer. All hidden behind that cozy coop. 👉 www.egg-truth.com/egg-blog/201... #eggtruth #vegetarian

🐓 “She’s just our pet.” “She gives us eggs in return for love.” No matter how idyllic it looks, backyard hens are still bred to suffer. Her clucks don’t mean she’s fine—they mask a body pushed far beyond nature. 👉 buff.ly/w8LBqca #eggtruth #vegetarian

🐓 She’s not a machine ❌ But we treat her like one. Even in backyards, hens are expected to pump out eggs daily. When her body gives out, she's often replaced. That’s not kindness. That’s exploitation. 👉 www.egg-truth.com/egg-blog/201... #eggtruth #vegetarian

🧬 🐓 “[...] the most severe animal welfare problem in today’s meat industry is largely invisible to the naked eye. I’m talking about their genes,” says Kenny Torrella from @vox.com 👉 buff.ly/vKIYTXz #eggtruth

Think “cage-free” is better for hens? Look past the carton: thousands in one shed, little space, same genetics pushing near-daily laying. Overproduction brings disease, brittle bones, sudden death. Male chicks are still discarded. Labels change housing, not harm. #eggtruth

“But pasture-raised hens have a better life!” Housing doesn't matter. Local farms, free-range, organic, backyard beloved — all hens bred for eggs face the same fate. 4 ways egg production kills hens, no matter where they live. An #eggtruth thread 👇
