- Conventional egg-production agriculture (also known as confined animal feeding operation or CAFO) raises hens indoors and in cages. This has raised concerns about animal welfare, environmental damage, and nutritional impacts.
- Egg-laying hens confined to cages do not have space to move or stretch, and they show more fearful behavior and become prone to skeletal problems. Large numbers of animals confined in small spaces also pollute the air, water and soil with the vast amounts of manure they produce.
