A few nights ago the ALF attacked one of the largest hatcheries for the egg industry in Denmark.
A well coordinated attack by activists on one of the largest hatcheries for the egg industry in Denmark. Over 20,000 fertilized eggs where kept in a cooling room, which prevents the eggs from developing into chicks. Fertilized eggs are stored at around 17 degrees Celsius for up to 3 weeks, before being moved to the “pre-incubators”, where they are kept for 18 days at around 37 degrees Celsius. At 37 degrees, they develop into chicks, before being moved to incubators the last 3 days, where the eggs hatch.
Once hatched, the males would be gassed to death, while the females would be abused for their bodies for over a year, before also being gassed to death.
Only the 20,000 eggs kept in the cooling room at 17 degrees were destroyed. Every measure was taken to ensure that no animals were harmed.
Not only did this action cause the hatchery economic damage and disrupt their industry, it also prevented over 20,000 chickens from being born into a terrible life.
