To explore and dustbathe to her heart’s content, and tuck her chicks into a comfy nest at night, safe and warm where they belong.  \nThis world — a world in which chickens are no longer treated like egg-laying machines, but instead like the sensitive, social individuals they are — is more than just a flight of fancy. It’s a real future that compassionate shoppers and home cooks across Australia are already helping to shape, simply by choosing fewer eggs and enjoying more egg-free meals throughout the week.  \nWhether you’re already re-thinking eggs in your diet or are just curious what egg-free living might look like, this guide is for you. Any new way of eating is bound to ruffle a few feathers at first — but with a few easy egg swaps in your trolley and delicious egg-free recipes to explore, you’ll soon discover just how easy and rewarding it can be to make your kitchen a kinder place for animals.  \nWe’re excited to help you dig in — and ever-grateful foryour support in writing a new chapter for mother hensand their chicks.  \nYours in kindness,  \nThe Animals Australia team  \nWhy try egg-free?  \nMost Australians would, quite reasonably, expect farmed animals like chickens to be protected from cruelty. So it’s no surprise that what happens on egg farms is kept out of sight.  \nHens can be adventurous, shy, curious, mischievous, and affectionate — much like the cats and dogs so many of us call family. Yet despite sharing the same capacity to feel joy and happiness, to feel pain and to suffer, egg-laying hens are among the millions of animals raised for food in Australia who are excluded from animal cruelty laws.  \nThese legal exemptions exist to protect industry profitability — and it’s animals who pay the price.  \nHens and chicks within the egg industry are left vulnerable to a range of routine practices that cause immense suffering and would be illegal in almost any other context, or if done to a dog or cat — like being confined incages for their entire lives, packed into filthy, crowded conditions with other stressed animals, and having parts of their sensitive beaks cut off without any pain relief.  \n4  \nThe suffering of hens in the egg industry isn’t the work of a few ‘bad eggs’— it’s legal, standard, and built into the system itself.  \nAnd for most egg-laying hens, the first time she will ever see the sky or breathe fresh air is from the truck on the way to the slaughterhouse.  \nThat’s why more people are choosing to put the chicken before the egg by switching to delicious, readily available egg-free alternatives.  \nA brighter future for hens is within reach, and it’s shaped by what we support with our purchasing power.  \nWhat about  \nfree-range eggs?  \nConditions on free-range egg farms vary dramatically.","cbCaioENRoo3eQGi","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaioENRoo3eQGi","pdf",3770761,17,"English","# Why try egg-free?\n## What free-range eggs can’t guarantee\n# Things the egg industry doesn’t tell you\n## Battery cages and what’s changing","[{\"question\":\"Why should someone try egg-free?\",\"answer\":\"Most egg-laying hens are kept and handled under legal systems that exclude them from animal cruelty protections.
