This is an interesting question, and I’d really like to know the answer.
From what I got, chicken have a lot of trouble making hiérarchies when there are a lot of them (e.g. thousands) and it’s something important for them so this might be a negative element. But frankly not sure.
Yes I heard the same. I had a brief look at their regulation and saw that “No more than 3,000 laying hens may be kept in any one shed” which seems pretty high even if they have more space per hen than with other regulations.
I’ll see if I can talk to some experts and get their thoughts on these questions.
