SINGAPORE: The Japanese company that will set up Singapore's fourth egg farm said it is"aware" of a letter by the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals alleging that it keeps chickens in cruel conditions.
"The footage shows hens confined to rows of stacked cages and packed so tightly together that they can barely move, much less spread their wings," he wrote in the letter seen by CNA. "A good environment for the animals is not just a matter of changing the shape of the cage. We believe that it is necessary to adjust the oxygen concentration, temperature, feed and other aspects of the comprehensive environment in the poultry house."
In response to queries from CNA, SFA said it works together with the National Parks Board to ensure the welfare of farmed food animals in Singapore.
