    Chickens just lay eggs. It’s just a thing they do. The factory chicken farms are fucked and shouldn’t exist but ethical eggs are a thing.

      They’ve been bred to lay an extreme amount of unnaturally big eggs.

        Either way they are still going to lay those eggs if they exist.

          ? Then its time to stop breeding them like that.

      I think even ethical eggs end up with some amount of suffering or premature death. Like those videos of the baby chicks being ground up.

      A large portion of health issues and causes of death chickens face are egg related. Sometimes the eggs get stuck, sometimes they break before being laid and cause an infection, vent prolapse, cancer, etc. That’s not to say I don’t think we should eat eggs, with a lot of cooking there is just no good substitute, but even the most pampered hen doesn’t have it easy.
