- The severe confinement of hens in wire cages where they are unable to spread their wings, exercise or perform natural behaviours - resulting in physical and mental suffering.
- The debeaking of chicks where up to one half of the upper beak and one third of the lower beak are cut off to stop caged hens pecking each other.
- Nerves reach to the tip of the beak, so this mutilation is extremely painful and is chronic to some birds.
