The ISE Hens…
One Year Later

On May 23, 2001, COK investigators openly rescued eight hens in dire need of immediate veterinary care from ISE-America, an egg producer with a factory farm in Cecilton, Md.

The hens, at the time virtually featherless and very despondent, have all been given a second chance at life. One year later, seven of the eight are alive and doing well.

Jane, a hen found pinned by one wing in the wire bars of her cage, had successfully survived the amputation of her wing and enjoyed sunbathing, running through the grass, dustbathing, jumping onto her perch at night, and, of course, eating her favorite treats, grapes. Jane was free from the exploitation of the egg industry for six months before succumbing to cancer.

Jane’s seven friends are enjoying a virtual paradise compared to their former existence inside a factory farm. Unfortunately, approximately 280 millions hens remain in U.S. battery cages.
