The British Hen Welfare Trust

Hi my name is Cerys and I have written this blog to inform you about my cause The British Hen Welfare Trust also what we can do to help stop this way of battery farming. First of all I would like to thank you for visiting my blog and I hope to make you more aware and raise awareness to encourage you and the people around you to support this organisation. I would like to gain your support as it is important that we have as many people to support our campaigning as possible. Please read on to find out more.

You may be thinking what are battery hens? Battery Hens are a type of Hen that have to live in very small cages and many get a very horrible life, indoors permanently.

Why should you support The British Hen Welfare Trust?
Hens are crammed in small cages and often lose feather due to rubbing against bars and other hens.
Typically once a hen has dropped from laying seven eggs a week to five or six they will be sent to the slaughter house to as you may of guessed to be slaughtered.
This reason should make you feel more encouraged to help stop battery farming not just in the UK but across the entire world. The rules of battery farming may have been twisted back in January so now caged hens are released into massive barns but they still lack in room to move and the freedom to stretch their wings. Hens should be free ranged like many other animals and deserve the same treatment as any other animal. 

I hope you now feel more informed about the issue of battery farming. Please if you have any spare time, could you take a few minutes to answer a few questions below. Again thank you for reading my blog on Tggsblogspot.

Did you know what Battery Hens were before reading this blog?
Have I made you more aware of this Trust?
Would you tell your friends and family about Battery Hens and encourage them to support this organisation too?
Have I changed your opinion about this issue, if yes please state why.
If I may ask you to leave with your answers which town you live in so I have a rough idea where the answers came from.

Thank you so much, Cerys.
