With rising egg prices due to avian influenza, people are fixated on the PRICE of eggs, but not considering the true COST of eggs for the birds…

There’s nothing humane about treating an animal well only until it’s profitable for them to be eaten and discarded.
Read more about the contrast between the humane hoax and sanctuary on our latest blog post: microsanctuary.org/2025/03/04/t...
A graphic showing how six billion newborn chicks are killed: - Eggs hatch at an egg-laying facility. - Males are culled via maceration, gassing, suffocation or electrocution - Females grow up to lay eggs
When a chicken egg hatches, there’s a roughly 50 percent chance that the chick inside will be male. This is a problem in the egg industry, where it’s cheaper to kill male chicks after birth than to raise them as broilers.

Thinking of getting backyard chickens because avian flu is causing egg prices to go so high?
Maybe…don’t.
Now is a good time to substitute a #vegan option for the eggs in your diet.
And it’s always a great time to go vegan. 🌱
The industry tells people that those of us who are against the AVMA legitimizing the mass extermination of influenza-infected flocks with heatstroke have no viable alternative.
Yes, we do. Learn about it here, and ask your tough questions.

It’s scary times in a lot of ways right now… For those who care for chickens and other birds, please monitor the situation with avian flu.
Biosecurity measures on sanctuaries remain critical to avoid resident exposure and risk of spread.

As we always love to point out, #roosters are protective, nurturing members of their flocks. They monitor for potential danger and stand by their flockmates when they’re occupied with activities like dust bathing, eating, or laying.
Good job, Bridgers!
