Summary:
The area's largest egg supplier was raid on counts that it caged chickens with the dead chickens. The farm supplies 65,000 eggs a week. Many animals died because they couldn't reach food and water and many times stayed in the cages with the egg laying birds.

Response:
This is the textbook example of factory farming. The abuse and cruelty is amazing. The animals are starving to death and the bodies are not removed. Also there is evidence the birds are being whipped, is horrible. There needs to be serious punishment for the farm. There should be new laws and heavy fines that include jail time.
