FfFfFfFF 58,401 Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 According to a California animal sanctuary, 1,000 hens that were going to be euthanized from a struggling Iowa egg farm were rescued this weekend. The farm, which the rescue did not name, had to scale down due to the pandemic disrupting supply chains, according to a press release from Animal Place, an animal advocacy group. The egg farm decided to scale down operations and planned to euthanize more than 100,000 hens with carbon dioxide gas. The Iowa farm agreed to allow Animal Place, a large animal sanctuary in northern California, to rescue 1,000 of those hens. "With funds running low, the farm had not been feeding the hens well for a week prior to rescue," according to the sanctuary's press release. "The farm employs a battery cage system with cages stacked four to five high, and 10 hens per cage." The animals now live in Grass Valley, California, at Animal Place, one of the oldest and largest sanctuaries in the state, according to the group. The hens will be nursed back to health and available for adoption for backyard flocks throughout the state. https://edition.cnn.com/2020/05/18/us/hen-rescue-egg-farm-trnd/index.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
